Tony Blocker Obituary
With profound sadness, we say goodbye to Tony Blocker (Calgary, Alberta), born in Atlanta, Georgia, whose vibrant spirit touched the lives of many. Tony left this world on April 16, 2025 at the age of 61, leaving a void in the lives of so many people. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Tony Blocker to show support.
In the vast expanse of eternity, Tony shall find rest, cradled in the arms of everlasting peace. And as we bid Tony farewell, his loved ones carry with them the precious gift of his memory, a beacon of hope guiding them through the shadows of sorrow towards the light of a new dawn.
He is survived by: his wife Janice Blaine of Calgary, AB; his parents, Tom Blocker and Nellie Blocker; and his brother Tim Blocker.
