Anthony's Story
Living life to the fullest at 60 years old. After the death of my first wife from MS, I remarried in 2017 to a beautiful and intelligent woman that I met while in Aruba. I travel to Mari's native Venezuela and married her in a civil and Catholic Church ceremony. Mari has come to the US legally and has been by my side continuously, and when I needed her more than ever, she has stood by my side thru my battle with prostate cancer. In all things I am blessed. Its 2022 and I am still here fighting a good fight with prostate cancer. Momma is now 90 years old, still living on her own in the old house on 25th Ave. Mari is as steady as ever and we are traveling as much as we can in between our work and business obligations. I am still blessed in all things and I know that GOD has been good to me, much better than I deserve.
Its August 25th, 2022 and Mariluz and I are still doing what we can just living life. Im trying not to let let cancer rule my life, but sometimes its hard to try and act ...Expand for more
like i dont have it. Numbers are good at this time, momma is fine and i have a beautiful wife by my side. I ll keep going down the road until it runs out. I pray all of you are okay where ever you are.
Well here we are in 2023. GOD continues to be exceptional with me. Mari and I closed out 2022 by traveling to Mexico City to the Venezuelan Embassy to get my Venezuelan VISA. We traveled from December 26th to January 6th, 2023 to Merida where we were married and Mari's family lives and to Caracas where we have friends who are like family. Mari has not been home in 4 1/2 years and in that time she lost her father at the age of 92. My mother turned 91 on January 13th, 2023 and I am happy to say she if functioning well and still at home. My cancer is at a standstill at this point and I am thankful for the prayers and my Doctor's at Emory. God continues to sustain and increase me and those i love. I hope that all your families are well and know that "Skip" remembers you all with fondness.
