Obituary of Anthony (Tony) John Edwards

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Tony (Anthony) on May 24, 2022 in his 52nd year at the Juravinski Hospital. He was surrounded by the love of his sister Dorothy cherished children and best friend in life Sheila.  Tony surrendered, against his will to a short but persistent battle with Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma since May 2021. Tony’s contagious personality and strength was admired by all who had the opportunity to know him. He will be remembered for his love of sports, music, fishing and the great outdoors but for most for the love that he had for his family and friends. Blessed with a beautiful family too big to mention all near and far and friends who have become family over the years, he will be deeply missed. You were taken from us way too soon in which we are struggling with.  We had so much to live for but now without choice we will hold onto these memories made, cherish and find comfort in them forever. A very special thank you to Dr. Hillis and nurse Juliana at the JCC, the hematology team on C-4, his ODS girls and everyone else he was blessed to have been cared for by. He truly appreciated you all. In lieu of flowers please send any donations to the Cancer Assistance Program.   At Tony’s request there will be no funeral service but a private celebration of life in the future.   Notes of sympathy and condolence may be made at www.donaldvbrown.ca
