Anthony "Tony" Lopez Sr., 55, of Livingston, Mt passed away on October 29, 2025 surrounded by his loved ones. He was born on January 8, 1970 in Granada Hills, CA. He was a devoted and loving father to Cheyenne Thomas, Anthony Lopez Jr., Erik Lopez, Gabriel Lopez, Joseph Lopez, Charlie Jackson, Kai Michael, Angel Lopez, Mali Lopez and Georgie Lopez and grandfather to Iris, Melina, Beau, Harper, Vincent, Emilia and Paisley.
Tony was originally from California and moved his family of 7 to Livingston, Montana over 20 years ago to offer his family a better way of living. In those 20+ years, Tony relocated his family to Bozeman where he worked as a CNA and construction worker. He was later divorced, and met, Holly Richards who he added two more kids to his clan. He was later reunited with a son who he had lost contact with after returning to Livingston. Tony was also the neighborhood dad for a lot of kids with troubled homes. His famous phrase was, "I don't have a lot, but you're welcome to what I have. Just find a spot to lay your head." In his most recent years, Tony built a stronger relationship with God with the help of his church, Crossing Community Church of Livingston. Through his church, he found a congress that he loved and felt complete acceptance. During this time, Tony was baptized along side 3 of his children as well as his sister.
Tony didn't like being the center of attention, but he deserves to have his long years of fatherly love honored and respected. He was a man of pride, forgiveness, wisdom, love and God. He left a lasting impact on everyone that knew him.
Tony enjoyed fishing, camping and hunting. His love for the outdoors is something he shared with his children, leaving a mark on us that will never fade. We take comfort in knowing that his legacy lives on through the lessons he taught us, the love he shared and the memories we will cherish forever.
Tony is survived by his children, Cheyenne Thomas, Anthony Lopez Jr., Erik Lopez, Gabriel Lopez, Joseph Lopez, Kai Michael, Angel Lopez, Mali Lopez and Georgie Lopez as well as his 7 grandchildren: Iris, Melina, Beau, Harper, Vincent, Emilia and Paisley, his best friend/ex wife Lisa Lopez, his 5 siblings, as well as many friends and extended family members who will miss him dearly and deeply.
Tony is perceived in death by his mother, JoAnn Gonzalez, Holly Richards, and many other loved ones.
