He loved eating his mother's home cooked meals the most and being around family to celebrate any special event or holiday. He had cousins who were like siblings to him; Andre Diaz, Mileen Salters, Tierra Nieves, Antoinette Nieves and many more. He loved his only niece dearly and treated his great cousins as if they were his nieces and nephews as well. He had a special bond with the kids. He was Anthony to us but “Papi, and DA” to them. He always made a fashion statement, stayed smiling, dancing and taking pictures. He was raised in church and forever had faith in the Lord. He lived a life full of the fruits of the spirit, Love, Joy, Kindness, Selflessness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness and now we know he found Peace.  Forever in our hearts, and Forever on our mind. Until we meet again, we love you and may your soul rest in heaven peacefully. He was proceeded in death by his grandmother Frances Martinez.
