Obituary of Tony John GAJDOSTIK

July 30, 1947 – October 19, 2020 

It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Tony John Gajdostik on Monday, October 19, 2020. 

Tony was born in Lethbridge, AB, to Mary and Frank Gajdostik and was raised in the Coaldale Area. Upon graduation from the University of Lethbridge, he moved to Calgary and pursued a career in the insurance industry, first with London Life, and then with Allstate Insurance for twenty-nine years until his retirement in 2009. 

He met and married his loving wife and partner of thirty-nine years, Vicki, and they were blessed with two sons, Jesse and Luke. Vicki joined Tony at Allstate and they worked together while raising their two boys into fine young men.

Tony loved to spend time at their cabin on Kootenay Lake in the summer, boating and fishing. In the fall he was an avid pheasant hunter in Alberta with his trusty German Short-Haired Pointer, Lucy. He shared his passion for hunting and fishing with his brother, sons, other family members and lifelong friends.

He was an excellent cook, and in retirement he took great pleasure in hosting family and friends, took up painting, and became an avid reader. 

Besides his loving wife Vicki and sons, Jesse and Luke, Tony is survived by his siblings, Frank, Vera, and Marian; as well as numerous cousins, nieces, and nephews. He will be dearly missed by his family and friends, former colleagues, and clients. Tony was predeceased by his mother and father.

Due to the present Covid-19 restrictions, there will be a private farewell for immediate family at McINNIS & HOLLOWAY CROWFOOT (82 Crowfoot Circle NW, Calgary, AB). Condolences, memories and photos may be shared and viewed on Tony’s obituary at www.McInnisandHolloway.com.
