The mother and daughter revealed how the outpouring of anger in Huyton about Anthony's racist killing helped support them in their grief.
Gee revealed she had spoken to people brought into church by the murder and to small children who had cried for her son.
She said: "You can't describe pain but I saw pain in those people's faces, and the reaction from the nation gave us practical help.
"They said, 'What can we do to ease your pain? We can't make it better, we can't bring your son back, but what can we do?'
"In a way it united the community, it is more than we ever imagined. Babies are making cards, they can't even write or spell properly, but putting it in their own words.
"Letters from 15-year-old girls saying 'I'm going to go to church because of Anthony'. Six-year-old kids sending cards saying 'I cried for him, I'm sorry'."
