My dear brother Anthony,
I can’t say enough about you, my big brother, my bro bro. We’ve been together for so so long. I will miss our phone calls every night and seeing you. Every time I walked in the room, I knew that you were so happy to see me. You’d give me that big beautiful smile and your eyes would sparkle. We always hugged one another. You were always there to listen to me when I babbled on and on. We didn’t always see eye to eye, but you told me you loved me so many times I didn’t doubt it for one second. You’d said Joan, buy yourself some flowers on every single occasion that came. I Love you brother with all my heart and will miss you every day. I know you are with the Lord and in peace. God bless you and keep you always.❤️❤️

Dearest Joanie and Family of Anthony. I will always remember him as “king of our neighborhood” He had such a personality and was very persuasive in his ability to make all of us younger ones listen to him! He will always be remembered in our hearts. He was the first and only one to own a monkey and how we loved to see what that monkey was up to!! Our hearts and prayers are with you and all of your beautiful family at this time. Love The Bowen family

The service from Millennium was outstanding. Rachel was sweet, personable and very comforting. It was important to me that my dad was kept locally where I knew where he would be. Very nice facility, state of the art and quality of my fathers remains were so refined compared to my mothers years ago. I highly recommend this place for an affordable choice for your loved one. Thank you for making an already stressful event easy. With high regards, the Esposito and Keith Family.

Millennium Cremation provided a fantastic service to our family at a difficult time. Our beloved mother passed away in Vero Beach and the rest of the family was in other parts of the country. Due to the Covid health crisis, none of us could get to Vero Beach in person. That's where Millennium took over. They helped us manage everything, coordinated with a cemetery in Maine, managed the obituaries, expedited all the paperwork, and even delivered an important document locally that saved us days. Funeral director Rachel was a godsend, and she made it clear what she was going to do, and what we needed to do. If you know what you want, Millennium is highly recommended, and the savings versus the full service mortuaries is significant.
