PETER "TONY" ANTHONY MONTAGNON

On May 21, 2025 Peter Anthony (Tony) Montagnon peacefully left this world after a short battle with cancer. He was predeceased by his parents, Archie and Betty Montagnon; and sister-in-law JoAnne.

Tony is survived by his siblings, Maureen (Warren), Mike, Paul and Lise (Rick). Also, his estranged wife, Lorraine; her children, Robert and Ryan; very special friend and partner Kathleen Harrison; her daughters, Jennifer (Rick) who had a very special place in his heart and Vanessa (Tyler); as well as her grandchildren, Carson, Andy, Evan, Chloe, Kaylee, and Emily; along with numerous nieces and nephews and great friends, Dave and Debbie being at the top of that list.

Tony was born on June 27, 1960 in Kenora, Ontario. Tony was a proud member of the Armed Forces serving with the Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry (PPCLI) until an injury in 1984 ended his military career.

Tony had a lifelong love for hockey, proudly playing as a goalie for many teams and leagues over the years. He also worked as a mechanic and welder until his military injury made it impossible to continue in that line of work. His passion for the outdoors led him to become a hunting and fishing guide at resorts in western Ontario and north eastern Manitoba - work he truly loved!

He was always a great friend and a generous man to everyone and had a great sense of humour which he said he got from his dad. He had a big heart often opening his home and life to those in need. He will always have a presence in the lives of everyone who knew him and will be sadly missed.

Tony would have loved you all to have a drink for him and, if you care to, a donation to any Dog Rescue in his memory.

Cremation has taken place and a private family interment will take place on his birthday, June 27th, in Kenora, Ontario. He will be laid to rest with his parents, as he wished.

Tony, you’re now free 

to go run with your dogs 

and enjoy a Pepsi!

Tony’s family kindly requests that all of his friends and relatives take a few minutes to honour his memory by sharing photos, memories, and stories, using the comment section on this page.
