Obituary
Anthony (Tony) Leverett of Lethbridge, beloved husband of Shelagh, passed away suddenly on March 24, 2023, after a short and cruel battle with Mesothelioma. He was 85 years old, which may come as a shock to many people who knew him, as Tony was eternally youthful.
Tony was born in London, England to Frederick Leverett and Eva (Garvey). He was employed as a double decker bus driver for London Transport before emigrating to Canada in December 1970, where he practiced his trade as a barber at various establishments, before opening his own barber shop at the Sandman Inn, Tony’s Barber Shop. Tony made many friends of clients, some of whom had been coming to him for over 50 years. The sudden onset of mesothelioma forced Tony into early retirement, otherwise he may never have retired. Tony really enjoyed working and conversing with his clients about many subjects, but mainly sports. Tony’s first love, other than his family, was soccer, followed by baseball and basically all sports. He always had music playing in his shop, especially big band. He had many pictures of Marilyn Monroe around the walls, he was a fan, and clients would tell him they came for the entertainment as well as the haircut. Tony had a great sense of humour and kept his family, friends and clients laughing over the years with his stories.
Tony met Shelagh in 1967, and immediately knew they had found their soul mate in each other. They married in 1969 before moving to Canada in 1970. Tony promised Shelagh that it would only be for one year, but Canada became their forever home. They enjoyed 53 years of a wonderful marriage. Their first child, Sean, came along in 1973 with Sarah following closely in 1974.Tony is survived by his devoted wife Shelagh, his beloved children, Sean (Miranda),Sarah (Rob) and his pride and joy grandchildren, Andrea, Amanda (Luke),Matthew, Kyle and Hannah.
Tony was a wonderful husband, Dad and Grandad and his passing has left a huge hole in all of our lives. Tony will be missed and loved forever.
As per Tony’s wishes, a private family service will be held.
