I personally knew Anthony, we went to the same school, sometimes we were in the same class. I would like to say goodbye in this message.
So, It's been about a year. Anthony was a good kid, I had known him for a long time. The night I figured out of his death, I had to try sleeping, while knowing the next day, the school would not be the same without him.
Since then, my school has honored Anthony in a small area on the school Playground.
I would like to thank Anthony for some great memories.
Thank you.

    So so sorry for the lost of your sweet handsome little man!!!! There are just no words 

My two boys played football with Anthony. I recorded the very last football game they had played. It was football season 2022-2023 with this last game being in the playoffs. While trying to zoom in and record one of my son, Anthony turns his face facing towards my camera. He had a black cross on one of his cheek. 

May God give you all the strength to get past this part. 

Anthony, your light sure touched  the whole world. I will be praying for your family. 

RIP Anthony Simon Duran 🤍🤍🤍🙏🙏🙏
