BROADHEAD – Anthony (Tony) Oliver
March 13, 1958 – June 8, 2024

We are sad to announce the passing of our dear brother Tony, in Edmonton, Alberta on June 8th, 2024.
He demonstrated strength and resilience, making his own choices – mischievously and with laughter when possible.
Our brother was a very talented, resourceful artist using whatever materials were available to express his creativity. His diverse range of skills, from writing stories and poetry to drawing and carving, has left an ever-lasting legacy. His commitment to living life on his own terms while marching to the beat of his own drum has infused his art with his unique and authentic spirit.
Tony was a deep thinker and frequented the Edmonton Public Libraries often.
His cherished phone calls were a source of joy and connection, filling our days with hot topics and laughter. Tony will live on in our memories as we recollect his many stories and twisted sense of humor.
He was predeceased by our mother, Elsie, brothers Alvin (Buggs), Harvey and Glen. He is already missed by his many remaining family members.
Tony believed in helping others. Let’s all do something to brighten someone else’s day in his honor, he would appreciate that.
As Tony wished, cremation has taken place. A private campfire celebration of memories will be set for a later date.
“Slowly so slowly
i close these eyes
and easily i slide
into a new day so wide
i can see forever sunny skies”
T.O.B – Sept 29 1983
