To the Anthony family, I wanted to send my condolences to your family. I didnt have a chance to meet Robert but wanted to share some thoughts from the Bible with his family. He was the age my dad is now and I cannot imagine how much pain you are going through, but God does. Ps. 34:17,18 says God is near to those broken at heart and im sure thats how you must be feeling. He also promises the ones left behind that miss Robert that they will get to see him again. (John 5:28,29) Not only that but that he will remove death altogether at Rev. 21:3,4. I hope that reading these verses will bring you some comfort now and in the days ahead.

I am so glad that my mom has friends like Sue and Marlon. It's been a while since I've seen Marlon, but when I did, he was always having a good time, laughing or cutting up. I know one thing, he loved his wife and kids. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of his family and friends! May Marlon rest in peace!!

Marlon was a great friend & he cared a lot for his children & wife sue. He treated everyone with respect. He invited me & my family to live with him when we was homeless & never ask for nothing in return but to help him if he ever needed a place for his family. We will miss you dearly marlon you have brought much love & care to this world may you rest in the arms of Jesus. Love Oscar Mendoza & wife Judith Mendoza & family.
