I would like to extend my condolences to Anthony's family and friends, my heart is with you. Especially to his sisters who have lost their big brother, believe me when I say I know the pain you are going through, and unfortunately it will be a pain that will stay with you for the rest of your life in some form or another. All I can say is remember all the great times spent together and all the good your brother has done, forget about any past transgressions. Be strong for your mother, because her pain is immeasurable. The Nigerian community has your family in their prayers.
My name is Dustin Magruder and I played baseball with Shane at BCHS. He was and still is the man. We all miss you Shane...Why's God always take the good Guys. Love ya
I live in USA and having learned of the unfortunate circumstances in London, I feel for all of the victims families. Even though I live many hours away from London I feel deeply sadden by the loss of human lifes. I know that the victims that have passed away are in a better place but what can I do to make it easier for the victims families or those that survived such misfortune? The only thing I can do is pray and fight for peace in the world. My promise to all is to not let your names be forgotten. O.Efthimiou
Everytime i saw Anthony, he had a smile on his face....every single time. I pray he is in a better place and that his smile will light up the hearts of everyone who loved him.
May God keep us and guide us. May His face continually shine on us. Amen Lamide Phillips-Gbadamosi
It feels strange how you do not know someone yet they seem so recognisable, i look on the news everyday to see if you have been found but to no preveil. I prey that you will be found soon and that you aren't in or haven't suffered any pain. It seems to me that you had many great friends who are still looking for you, so take care of them from above. May God bless them and your family who are still waiting for news. I hope you are at peace and that you will be found soon, like i said before i don't know you but somethings made me care. Rest in Peace and all my love Charlene xxx
I honestly refuse to believe that Anthony is actually dead. I know they say that God giveth and God taketh away but Anthony didn't deserve to be taken anywhere, especially not in such a bad way. I only met him 5 months ago and he was such a lovely and pleasant guy, not forgetting the fact that he was so so good looking and down to earth. I remember the last time i saw him was at my place of work when my manager had really upset me and messed up my day, only for Anthony to come and put a big smile on my face... My Father in heaven, I will not be the one to criticise nor question you so as you have decided to take our dear friend and loved one away I trust that you will take absolute control over him and give him the best life after death. he was a good man on earth and I'm sure would be a better man in heaven.
Procrastinating is something I was always good at as you know...I feel sooo sad everytime I think about what happened to you..I know you're in a place that is pure and peaceful but it doesn't ease the pain....I wish I had just one more chance to talk to you, respond to your emails or go to lunch like I always said I would.....I will miss you.

Jesus Christ said, "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid" John 14:27
James, you are know with God in glory. We will miss you so much. It was a previledge to have known you. My prayers are with your family and all of your many Christian brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus. God bless.

With tears in my eyes and a heavy heart, i pray for your soul and your family. May God bless you and give your family strength. So sorry for this terrible loss of precious life.
Giles was a tremendously compassionate, conscientious and humane man. He dedicated his life to campaigning for justice, human rights and against oppression, most notably in his unrelenting solidarity with the Polish trade union movement solidarnosc. It was an honour to have known him and for him to have touched my life. He was a living example of how people can work selflessly for peace and justice whilst rejecting the rhetorics of power and violence. He was an inspiration to me and to all. My heartfelt condolences go to his wife, children, and loved ones. Rest in peace Giles.
well all i can see is that i am deeply sorry.I cant imagine what this must be like! losing someone like this. Angelina and the rest of the family i am deeply sorry. x
Rest in peace Anthony. I never know you but I couldn't help but be touched by your young innocent life being cut so short. I pray for grace for your family that they will always find strength and hope in the fact that you are resting in the bosom of our Lord Jesus Christ. Till we meet someday in Heaven, Rest in Peace Anthony. OA.
So sad that ur gone at this young age. I dont really know u, but i remember u from church of assumption. Your abscence has touched alot of people that knew u especially my sisters who knew u from CCSS. I pray that God grants ur family the strength to bear their loss. May your Gentle soul rest in perfect peace. Amen
We only meet once or so but even if we never had, I would still have cried the way i did when I heard Marie speak on TV. I wish I coul dturn back the hands of time and saved you from this evil. May God protect your family. May your candle burn forever! your death will never be in vain! RIP Anthony
Our Hearts and prayers go out all who suffered in this terrible terrible event. Theae are acts of cowardice that, unfortunately, puts all of us are all at risk! We always remember all of you. The rest of us have to remain vigilant. We will win in this war against terror.
I’m sure u’re smiling as you look down on all of us and see just how much you are loved. You left CCSS b4 I got there but I’m so glad that we still met anyway. I wish I knew you better but will someday in heaven. You were absolutely gorgeous and had such a warm personality. I’m overwhelmed by thot that u are with God but I know He can take care of you better than anyone here could.
I know God will takecare of your loved ones. May the souls of all the faithfully departed rest in perfect peace. Amen.
Tony I met you briefly at University and even though we never got to know one another very well, you have always and will always be in my thoughts.I am deeply saddened by what has happened and it is a tragedy, however, i can only believe you have gone to a better place! My thoughts go out to your strong, beautiful mother and the rest of your family. I hope to meet with you again someday! Rest in peace- D xxx
You did not deserve to leave like this… and at this time. It is heartbreaking that you are no longer here. That you have gone on to a better place does not lessen the pain. We will continually remember you and your loved ones in our prayers.
May the good Lord comfort and strengthen your mother, father and sisters. May they find comfort in the fact that your light shone brightly while you were here.
My thoughts are with his friends and family. I was in the same year as Anthony at the British School of Paris, and I remember him well. He was so generous, and intelligent and so full of life. My deepest regrets, Kirsten Smith xxx
So so sad that a good persona had to be taken so early. But i guess God was missing an ANGEL in heaven. May your soul rest in perfect peace and may God comfort your family. This candle is for you.
Anthony, Although I did not know u, I have a lot of friends that have been affected by your death. As a CCSS alumni, I am saddened by your death Everyone has nothing but good things to say about you. May your gentle sould continue to rest in the bosom of the lord. I trust God will give your family the strenght to bear the loss. Sun re! FA
I knew William since 1999. He was a kindest person I have ever met. He had never been angry, never annoyed and always smiling.
He had courage to speak about his illness and had a very demanding job despite of it. A true Englishman and Gentleman he was so tolerant towards all foreigners (including me) invaded his country…
He loved his family dearly. He often spoke about his sister and nephews whom he loved to bits.
There is no way that any course can be justified by killing innocent people. Only love and compassion can change this world. I pray for William and others who was killed and injured. I hope one day I will be able to think about the killers without anger.
I still find it hard to believe you are gone. I know you rest with the Lord and will be watching over your loved ones. May God grant your family the strength they need to cope. Anthony you are loved. Ola
May you rest in peace. I am very sad & shocked from the news and remember you so well from our days together at Sevenoaks. The thing I remember the most was your smile and the pleasure of just being around you. I treasure those memories of studying (well, not as much as we should've done), working out and having fun together. I send my deepest condolences to your mother, sisters and all the family.
This is heartbreaking... I pray you rest peacefully Anthony. I pray that God would strengthen your family to bear this huge & sudden loss..We are all still shaken up by it. Anytime we met, I remembered your face from Corona days, cos it did not change! You were always warm and receiving even though we didn't know each other that well.. It was a case of having common/mutual friends, and the fact you went to CCSS as well.. We will continue to remember you & your family in prayer always. God Bless - LA
My sincere condolences to the family and friends of whose loved ones have died in the terrible events of last week and may their souls rest in peace and I hope the people behind this awful tragedy get caught and executed because they truly do not deserve to take innocent lives and leave in peace themselves.
All my deepest condolences on the loss of such a great guy. I'm so glad to have known you and will never forget you. My heart bleeds for all the family and friends.
Whenever I think back to when the two of us were living with Mr and Mrs Gorski I'll remember us fighting over which one of us would have to walk that ugly, smelly dog!! Thank you for being there on my birthday when I was all alone, it meant a lot to me. Peace be with you, I'll think of you often. xxx
Phil, I know we haven't seen eachother for a while! Strange considering we live in the same town! I think about you everyday, praying for you, stacey, your mum & dad, and the rest of your family! You are such a great, caring, funny, fantastic person and i can't believe this has happened!! I have got some GREAT memories of the laughs me & you used to have. God you can make me laugh! x
All my family are thinking of you all, Dawn, Sammy, Nicky, Ackie, and i know Natalie is too x
Anthony, the sadness i feel as a result of your departure is overwhelming. Im grateful to God that i had the opportunity to know you. I'll miss you so very much and i pray you rest in eternal peace. My thots and my prayers are with your family, loved ones and all your closest friends. See you in heaven. All my love and more, Abisola Balogun
So, so sorry that Shahera should have died in such a terrible way. To her relatives and especially her grandfather and to all her colleagues at the Co-op Bank we send our deepest sympathy. That such a light has gone out we can only hope she is at peace and that her family will find some sort of peace eventually. Love to everyone and may the suffering be lessened by the prayers and thoughts of so many around the world.
Dear Londoners , I am English and have been living in studying abroad for the last few months . When I heard what had happened to my city a deep cloud of despair hung over me and the futile feeling of just wanting to help persistently throbbed at my insides.
I want every Londoner to know that in this World we command a great deal of respect for our history and for the nature of our dispositions . We are a people who are polite and hold each other with a respect a fellow English man should while at the same time capable of a strength that is sometimes called upon in such circumstances as the ferocious attack on our fellow citizens. If we are anything we are only an example to how the whole World should be. This is evidently supported by the consistent new blood that renews the life of our country.
We will go on and we will be discouraged by such inhuman acts but that's what we do . We are British!
Oh the heartbreak your Mum must be feeling right now. I hope she can find comfort in the fact that even in death, she can always be proud of you. May the God of all comfort visit your family at this time... Never knew you but was struck as a Mother and as a Nigerian. Sun u reee Jagunlabi!
i knew her, she was a wonderful lovely person who who will be missed by all those who knew her. She was a proud britsh bengali muslim embracing both cultures. In one sense i am upset and angry that she has been taken away from ol of us so quickly and so tragicaly, however i know she is up der in heaven. dont know wat else to write...ol i know is that you will be missed big time.
To those that have lost their friend or family member. Our hearts are heavy knowing the pain and hurt you are feeling at this time. Our country suffered a great loss as well 0n 9/11. We feel your sorrow..... May God's hands be on each and every one of you in London and carry you thru this difficult time. These ruthless killers have meet the "Devil" now and they are getting what they asked for. Your loved ones are in the loving home of the Lord Jesus Christ. My prayers are with you and your family and your country.....
I have known Neetu for many years and we became good friends over the years. Its so ironic that I heard from her just the week before the bombing. I am truly saddened by this and cannot imagine how this must be affecting her family. To her parents, her Sister Reetu and boyfriend Gous, I am deeply sorry for your loss and may God give you all the strength to deal with this awful tragedy.
Who has lost and suffered in this awful tradegy, it makes my blood boil to think these evil people have cut short the lifes of people who were just going about their business, these evil people have taken moms and dads away from their children and children away from their moms and dads, to all the victims and their families you are in my thoughts and prayers.

As I write, Giles is still missing. I do not know him, but as a colleague from BT am moved to watch and hope.
Internet searches have revealed Giles fought for freedom from oppression through the Polish Solidarity Campaign. On the web are pictures of him - one with Lech Walesa.
It is this defiance in the face of adversity that must motivate us all to carry on.
My thoughts are with his family, his mother, wife, his son and his daughter.

Tribute to our Armed Forces and Capt. Jeremy Fresques
Received this email this morning:
This just happened here in Phoenix. Understand the first letter is a complaint to Luke AFB and the second is the response from the senior officer.
Complaint:

A wake-up call from Luke's jets
Jun. 23, 2005 12:00 AM
"Question of the day for Luke Air Force Base: Whom do we thank for the morning air show?
Last Wednesday, at precisely 9:11 a.m., a tight formation of four F-16 jets made a low pass over Arrowhead Mall, continuing west over Bell Road at approximately 500 feet. Imagine our good fortune!
Do the Tom Cruise-wannabes feel we need this wake-up call, or were they trying to impress the cashiers at Mervyns' early-bird special?
Any response would be appreciated."
The reply is classic, and a testament to the professionalism and heroism of the folks in the armed services. The response:
Quote:
Regarding "A wake-up call from Luke's jets" (Letters, Thursday):
On June 15, at precisely 9:12 a.m., a perfectly timed four-ship of F-16s from the 63rd Fighter Squadron at Luke Air Force Base flew over the grave of Capt. Jeremy Fresques.
Capt. Fresques was an Air Force officer who was previously stationed at Luke Air Force Base and was killed in Iraq on May 30, Memorial Day.
At 9 a.m. on June 15, his family and friends gathered at Sunland Memorial Park in Sun City to mourn the loss of a husband, son and friend.
Based on the letter writer's recount of the flyby, and because of the jet noise, I'm sure you didn't hear the 21-gun salute, the playing of taps, or my words to the widow and parents of Capt. Fresques as I gave them their son's flag on behalf of the president of the United States and all those veterans and servicemen and women who understand the sacrifices they have endured.
A four-ship flyby is a display of respect the Air Force pays to those who give their lives in defense of freedom. We are professional aviators and take our jobs seriously, and on June 15 what the letter writer witnessed was four officers lining up to pay their ultimate respects.
The letter writer asks, "Whom do we thank for the morning air show?"
The 56th Fighter Wing will call for you, and forward your thanks to the widow and parents of Capt. Fresques, and thank them for you, for it was in their honor that my pilots flew the most honorable formation of their lives.
To dear Maryla and family. So very, very sad to hear you've lost Giles. Steve has just told me what a great guy he was. I can't begin to imagine how awful it must be to lose a family member. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Love Cat
Anthony, I'll never forget you. Known you since we were kids, u were there for me in CCSS. I feel you are with me and you know how much I love you, ur smile and will miss you so much. I wish I called you when u sent me your number just last month it hurts. I know you are in Heaven praying for us and your family. I had a dream that u were happy Anthony. That makes me feel better.
in this world we are living in ppl are too stupid and carless and do not think of the right things to do in life. i will keep laura in a part of my heart even if i didnt know her.I am just a 12 year old child in the island of st.lucia, and i, think wiser than some stupid idiots who are evil and mean.I will pray for laura and all other victims of this very unfortunate incident that occurred.
god bless you laura and i know you are happy in heaven with our father god witha big smile on ure face. Well, i just hope one day to seee u there all my love ,
even though i may be a 12 year old girl from the caribbean i still have much grief in what has happened. I send my deepest condolences to your family philip and i ask god to please love and protect you. i send all my most sincere happy thoughts to you, aiasha
After all the many calls of trying to motivate me to go to the gym and Church with you...I regret deeply not going as I would have been able to talk to you more like you always wanted to! Can't believe I will never get to hear your voice or laugh again. I pray that you may rest in peace and have gone to a better place. All my love, J xxx
My thoughts love and prayers are with the Webb and Driver family and friends during this terrible time. The strength of the Webb family, Chris and Laura's friends are an inspiration to me.
I was at New Hall school with Fiona and recognised her the moment I saw her photo on the missing poster. I feel terribly upset for her family and wish I was something I could do to help. I can't imagine how they are feeling and I can't think of words to express how I am feeling.
Tony I can't believe what has happened to you. Your energy was infectious and most importantly, you were such a good person. I wish I hugged you before you left the lounge; I wish I spoke to you when you called very early that morning. But, how could I have known that those would be the last times I would see or hear from you? I am so sad.
I pray for your family. May the Lord help them to cope with this. Rest in peace Anthony.
I am a few hundred miles north of london and have only been to the capital once. When I visited a few years back people did not appear friendly and I assumed london although vast to be a lonely place to be. HOW WRONG WAS I!!! Having seen the devastation last weeks terror has caused and watching the city come to a complete standstill for the silence today I am completely humbled by their community spirit, their love for their fellow neighbours and their courage to carry on. Although I knew no-one affected by this terrible event I am deeply saddened for everyone involved. My sincere and heartfelt condolences to you all. xxx
i dont know what to say..but it's the bloody hands of terrorism which never deffirentiate bet.ppl whatever their race or religion is...i hold my condoleance to shehara's family from the lands of the pyramids "EGYPT"..as i was seeing the pictures of the innocent ppl killed in london bombs the picture of this innocent girl stopped me,i was shocked..i dont know why i felt that i knew her or that she is one of my relatives or may be she was the angel to whom i dreamt all my life to be a husband for.. i just wanna say that the terrorism which kill innocent ppl using the general transport is sure of no religion even if they r muslims because islam is not just a religion written in the cart of identity or an adjectif inherited from the parents..islam is a life is a general attitude which have a message of prevailing peace all over the world "not terrorism"

your spirit will never die. We have been friends since 1985 when we met as undergraduates and developed strong bonds. You had a great and loving personality and a strong love for your family especially for your nieces and nephew. You were a loyal and honest friend. You will be missed but NEVER forgotten. May you rest in peace. Joanna Galea-Lauri
I was in London on Thurs 7th, and was supposed to be in the Liverpool St/Aldgate area via Tube early that morning. However, running late etc meant that I and my friends didn't get to the tube station until the time the network was closed that morning. It was a strange day - lots of texts and mobile calls to reassure friends and relatives we were all OK,plus information gathering via the TV piecing the day's events together.
I never knew Fiona, nor had even heard of her until the other day, when my mother told me in a phone call the Monday after these events that Fiona and I were related, and that she was missing, presumed dead.
Strange. I'm not sure how I feel about any of this, but I feel different.
