Remembering Anthony & Tammy Reece: They loved life 'If tears could bring both back . . . you both would be with us tonight' Brenda Henson writes: What a great picture of these two angels. Only the Lord knows how bad we miss you tonight. How will we get through life without these special two people? Anthony, I love you so much. You were like my child, always there for us.

If tears could bring you both back, you both would be with us tonight. Thanks to John, Criss, Larry and Devin, for all their hard work, since Anthony & Tammy passed away. Sadly missed.
