Anthony Velazquez

Velazquez was a light that can never be replaced. Though I only ever knew him as a coworker, I still would consider him a friend. Someone that you can look up to, to mentor you, to inspire you. I pray that whatever darkness overtook him is now extinguished and he finds peace in the hereafter; those of us still here will keep him alive in our thoughts and cherished memories forever. The impact of his life and service will never be forgotten.

Anthony was the first person I met at DHL when I went in for my first interview. He was actually working security desk at the time and he greeted me and inquired about the position I was interviewing for. We talked for a few minutes and he mentioned to me he had applied for a similar role and I wished him well on his upcoming interview and I had a feeling he was going to get the job. It was cool seeing him a couple weeks later on the same DHL work floor as me. Sending prayers to all of his friends, family and co workers.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Velazquez’s as they nagivate through this difficult time. – DHL CVG HUB Security Team.

Thankful for the years he made the long workday easier for all of us.
Anthony will truly be missed. May he rest in peace. Please know that you are in my thoughts.

He was definitely one of the best people to be around. I was lucky enough to work alongside him at DHLE for 9 years. He always found a way to make people laugh and make the rough situations better. Out of the many great memories I have of him, my favorites are when it was his last night of 3rd shift, he was celebrating by throwing whip cream at my and others as a farewell. Or how he always joked and brought his team together to stand up and stare every single time I walked by. His absence is greatly felt, and he will never be forgotten.

Condolences to your family, friends, and the people that loved you. Always Faithful…Semper Fidelis

Anthony, I hope your pain and suffering have ended and that you are truly at peace. This World will never be the same without you. My heartfelt condolences go out to Nicole and the boys. I pray there is comfort found knowing how big of a difference he made by being the most amazing father, friend, and coworker. I will always remember his infectious enthusiasm and positivity.

I didn’t work with Anthony long on express but I knew him as the guy across the hall. During my time in exports his billing team could be heard on the other side of the walls due to his humor and infectious laugh. I hope his family well and will keep him and them in mind !

You’re going to be missed, brother.
