Anthony ‘Tony’ Modde

2025 - February 12, 2025

With the heaviest of hearts, we must announce that Anthony Edward Modde left us suddenly on Wednesday, February 12, 2025, at the age of 72. He has now joined his beloved son Brian (2024) and his parents Edward and Adrienne Modde.

Tony’s memory will be forever cherished by his wife Janis (nee Crombey), his daughter Sarah (Steve) Santos, and his daughter-in-law Erica Modde. He was the most cherished grandpa of Jorge and Joaquim ‘Jack’ Santos and Chase, Channer, and Summer Modde. He will be fondly remembered by his nieces, nephews, cousins, and dear friends, especially Dave Krogman.

He helped many people from the community with their vehicle needs over his 52 years of being a dedicated member of the Riverview Automotive team until his retirement in July of 2024.

In keeping with Tony’s private nature, his family and close friends will hold a private service at the Haycock-Cavanagh Funeral Home, 409 Nelson Street in Wallaceburg (519-627-3231). He will be laid to rest at Riverview Cemetery at a later date.
