Brown
1944 - 2020
Anthony ‘Tony’ Brown, beloved husband of Brenda, passed away at St. Joseph’s Home - Carmel Hospice in Medicine Hat on Thursday, October 22, 2020, at the age of 75 years. Along with Brenda, his loving wife of 44 years, Tony will be lovingly remembered by his sons, Paul (Karen) and David; daughters, Susan and Lisa (Tyrel) and grandchildren, Van and Georgia. He is also survived by six brothers, James, Christie, Paul, Noel, Lawrence and Liam; four sisters, Kathleen, Pam, Margaret and Angela as well as numerous nieces and nephews for whom he was and will remain, “The Legendary Uncle Tony.” He was predeceased by his parents, James and Kathleen Brown and brother, Thomas. Tony was born in Dublin, Ireland on December 23, 1944, immigrated to Canada in 1968 and eventually settled in Medicine Hat where he especially enjoyed the hot summers. Tony worked as a pipe fitter and a house painter. He will be fondly remembered for his years delighting audiences and fellow cast and crew as a cherished member of the Medicine Hat Community Theatre groups. Tony was the life of every party, entertaining friends and family with his musical talents, playing guitar and singing. A private family service will be held on Thursday, October 29, 2020, and friends are then welcome to join the family at Player’s Pub, 39 - 8 Street NW, Medicine Hat for a few drinks in Tony’s honour, beginning at 4:00 p.m.

Dear Jimmie:
My sincere condolences to you, Brenda and family. It is with happy memories that I shall remember our Tony in musical productions and of course, the Green Rooms. He was one of a kind. The picture of him is 'so Tony'. May your memories be a blessing.

We are saddened to hear of Tony's passing. It was always a a joy to run into Tony and talk about all the good times we enjoyed during our past years in musical theatre productions. The obituary photo caught the true essence of the Tony we will always remember. Rest in peace Tony!
