Antoine, You really were a comet of joy and energy to everyone you touched.Being around you, your sister and Trellis for four years was a blessing for me. I was very humbled when you thanked me for listening and helping you stay straight and graduate from Pedro. God Bless Coach Stan Jones

Antoine was a student in my eleventh grade English class at PMHS. I will forever cherish his kind heart, gentle spirit, contagious smile, and warm affection for EVERYONE around him. My heart is broken. May God provide comfort to Antoine's family and friends, and may He forever hold Antoine in the palm of His hand. 🙏 Cynthia Morrison

I went to high school with Antoine. I didn't know him very well, but he was always so kind to me when most people weren't. I'll always remember that. I hope he's in a better place now and my thoughts are with his family and loved ones.

My love and sympathy go out to Antoine's family and many friends. He was a favorite student of mine at Hastings/South Woods and I knew him as he grew to be a man. My heart aches at his loss.

My prayers are with all Antoine's family and friends. To know Antoine was to love Antoine. I spent a lot of time with Antoine in the classroom (Menendez) and he was the highlight of my day. My heart is truly broken, much love to all who knew him.
