I met Tony a couple of times when he would come by and see Marchelle. I have worked with Marchelle for several years and I count her as a dear sister in Christ! My heart aches for her and her family. I'm praying daily for God's peace to continue to surround them. Oh what a beautiful day, when we go home to be with Jesus and reunited with our loved ones. Thank you Jesus.

I met Tony when he was about 10 years old. He was always a very sweet and kind soft spoken young man. He and I vowed we would always be sister and brother in law/love! He was always so supportive of his niece and nephew (Andrea and Julian). Thanks for all the photos you took!! He will be greatly missed, but I know he is amongst the Heavenly host now! Will continue to pray for Marcelle and their children, and the Pritchett family. Rest in peace my brother; I love you, but God loves you best. ❤️🥲 Shirley Pritchett Robinson

Uncle Tony was the youngest and last surviving of 12 siblings. He was there supporting all the nieces and nephews who have lost their parent(s) over several years and as recent as 8 months ago. Uncle Tony insisted that the family come together and fellowship on a regular basis so they we could all support each other in our life endeavors. I visited Uncle Tony a few hours before he transitioned, and I want all to know that he fought his hardest to stay with us. The Pritchett/Pasley family love and miss you dearly already! May you rest in the arms of the Lord and rejoice with your siblings! Cynthia Pasley-Richardson
