  3. I feel so fortunate to have known Anthony. He never failed to brighten my day with his smile and infectious laugh. He and had some great conversations. When my Mom died this past July Anthony made a point to stop by my office privately and say how sorry he was. Anthony was always that thoughtful, and I will never forget that.

    To the family of Anthony, you have my deepest condolences. I was Anthony’s Company Gunnery Sergeant and Platoon Sergeant, Echo Company, 2d BN 1st Marines. I’m deeply saddened by his passing and can tell you it was true honor to work with such an amazing Marine. There are no words that can describe the caliber of Marine I remember him as, but can assure you that he will be greatly missed by all of us who knew him as well as worked with him. Again, I am truly sorry for your loss and if there is anything me or my family can do please let me know.

    Semper Fidelis,

    Anthony was like a big brother to me. I remember when he would come to my room and catch the creepy crawls that found their way onto my bed. When I woke up early in the morning we would get cereal and watch cartoons together. When he baking for some class that I can’t remember all I can remember was the blackberry tarts he was making and had me be the taste tester. When Anthony and my Grandpa Carlos Bollman surprised me at school with hotdogs from sonic. I’m am happy that I have all these great memories I have of him. He is dearly missed by all and glad that your looking over all of us. Thank you for these great memories. Rest In Peace.
