What were Anthony's favorite vacation spots?

Wes Candela

First, we're asking: What did you learn from Anthony? If it had a lasting impact, what was it?

I learned I had a brother in arms. 
From 1992 onwards.

That I could call or write every time something made me laugh, no explanation needed… and we would laugh like the lunatics we are.

If you didn't laugh with us, you were on the outside.

You were drinking the Kool-Aid

I learned about honor among brothers, true honor between friends. I learned how to persevere through work until the job was perfect from him.

It didn't matter if we hadn't slept for 27 hours, it was doing the job

I learned that how rare of a human being he was and how much I'm gonna miss him.
Every moment lasts.

Complete brotherhood.

We're all lucky to have had him in our lives, I'm lucky to have had his friendship and brotherhood
I  know he knows how I feel. Whenever I speak about him deeply, like right now I can feel the wind gently blowing… And within that wind, I can hear his words.
"it's all trivial. Never forget what it matters most.."
I could write a novel.

I love you, Tony. 
All my love to the Loiacono family.

There are no words to how much we miss you.
