Anthony was born on August 4, 1992 in Davenport, the son of Eric and Monica (Barton) Burge and brother of Nicole. He was a 2011 graduate of Davenport Central High School.

Anthony was very easy going, friendly and had a big smile.  He was multitalented and enjoyed playing the guitar, bass, and did some creative writing.  In his younger years he expressed his creativity through drawing.  He was a movie buff and found joy in watching Backyard Wrestling, NXT, and WWE.  He loved to shock people and had recently been the proud owner of a mullet before donating his hair to Locks of Love.  He will be greatly missed.
