Tragic Murder of Anthony Roper
Donation protected
Dec.16,2016. Anthony was shot and killed while out with a friend by someone who then tried to kill himself. The man who murdered him is currently alive & in ICU
Anthony was only 28 yrs old. He leaves behind 2 young boys ,both under 9 yrs. old , that will never get the chance to grow up with a dad now.
Anthony was in the military, a veteran; US Army, a former EMT, he liked to help other people and make a difference in their lives.
Anthony volunteered Frequently at his son's school and was a rocket football coach.
He recently began to stay with his mother who is disabled and going through numerous surgeries for possible thyroid cancer
I am setting up this account for his mother and his boys
To use for funeral expenses not covered by his VA benefits anything left over Will go into a trust for his children so they can have what they need when comes time for college.
I've known Anthony since he was 12 years old.
He was a good kid that turned into a good man.
That did his duty to his country and was trying to raise his sons as a single father.
He had a very deep relationship with GOD and tried to live by those values.
He did NOT deserve to die like he did.
ALL money goes directly to family.
Please help, even a few dollars add up here and there.
Not right. A good family lost their son and 2 young boys lost their father, specially this close to Christmas.
They need a Christmas miracle now to help them get through part of this without the added worry of funeral expenses.
So please send your prayers and any donations that you can. even a $1.00 can help, they add up over time.
