Tony Powell

Tony Powell lived in Jefferson, Ohio, and was 33 years old at the time of his death on December 9, 2016. Public records preserved by Montgomery County include his name among the county’s 2016 homicide memorial listings, which confirms the date of his passing. Beyond those formal records, there is little in widely available public sources that describes Tony’s private life, work, or family in detail. That absence in the public record does not diminish his personhood: he was a neighbor, a son of a community, and someone whose life mattered to people who knew him.

Because published obituaries or family-authorized memorials matching his name and the exact date of death were not found in accessible, reliable sources, this remembrance focuses on what can be verified and on honoring his humanity with care. Tony’s name on an official county memorial makes clear that his death was mourned beyond his immediate circle; local communities often remember neighbors like Tony for everyday kindnesses, shared history, and the ordinary threads that bind towns together.

For those who loved Tony, memories and private tributes remain the most complete record of who he was. If family members or friends wish to share more about his life — his work, favorite pastimes, the people he loved — those details would help make a fuller, more personal memorial. Until such information is published by a family or funeral home, this page holds a respectful place for Tony Powell’s name and the knowledge that his life mattered to his community.
