"You are so beautiful to me", schrijven Isa, Merlijn en Vlinder. "Dag allerallerliefste. Dag lieve, grappige, stoere, slimme, gekke Papa. Liefje we houden zo ontzettend veel van je." De advertentie wordt geïllustreerd door drie getekende hartjes. Ook de ouders, broers en zussen, neven en nichtjes van Antonie plaatsten mooie woorden: "Gelukkig zo veel mooie herinneringen. Gelukkig zijn wij voor altijd verbonden met Isa, Merlijn en Vlinder." Zwagers van Antonie, Onno Hoes en Albert Verlinde: "Kon jij jezelf maar zien zoals wij jou zagen. We Houden van je." "Een sprankelende en inspirerende acteur. Het is een wrap voor deze kanjer. Zoveel mooie rollen had je nog moeten spelen, langer had je bij ons moeten zijn (...)", schrijven crew en cast van de film Feestje, waarin de acteur een hoofdrol speelde. (source: De Telegraaf.nl)
