Tony Doll, 79, of Grande Prairie    It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Tony Doll at the Fairview Health Complex on September 26, 1998, just short of his 80th birthday.

In 1959 Tony and Frances moved to Grande Prairie where Tony continued to farm and later worked at the Canfor plywood plant as a heavy duty mechanic and in 1983 he retired but continued to guide and support his children and grandchildren. Tony was extremely proud of his children and grandchildren influencing them in so many ways. He was a kind and honest man, and he had a zest for life. He enjoyed playing his Fiddle and received several fiddling trophies. He enjoyed the many trips he took with the family and friends, particularly his trip to the Indianapolis 500.    He took up golfing and played many enjoyable games with friends and he always looked forward to the annual summer golf tournament that brought family and friends together. He never missed a chance to take his grandsons to demolition derbies and was proud to be on hand when his grandson won the Novice Bareback Championship at the Calgary Stampede in 1997.    He will be sadly missed. Tony is predeceased by a granddaughter, Daylene Doll and two brothers, George and Willie.    Prayer services will be held on Thursday, October 1, 1998 at 7:45 p.m. at Oliver's Grande Prairie Funeral Chapel, 10005-107 Avenue, Grande Prairie.
