Anthony loved to go fishing at San Isabel Lake and Deweese Lake. He loved his son Fabian and was very proud of his accomplishments. He was an avid Bronco’s fan and bled Orange and Blue. He also loved to cook and was always up for a BBQ and listening to music. He loved to spend time with his family and friends. His friends referred to him as “Antz” or “Grajeda” and he had such a great deep laugh that we will never forget. He was our little “Big” brother and will surely be missed. His ashes will be spread in San Isabel since that is a place where he loved to go and spend time and be at peace.
