Anthony Lingbloom Obituary
Anthony "Tony" Lingbloom, 38, of Phoenix, AZ, departed this life on July 7, 2023, at his home in Phoenix, AZ.
Tony was born on December 12, 1984, in Lincoln, NE, and moved to Phoenix, AZ with his family in 1986. Tony graduated from Estrella Foothills High School [EFHS] in Goodyear, AZ, in 2003, and shortly after, gained employment with Harkins Theatre and worked as a doorman for over 12 years.
Despite requiring the use of a wheelchair for a majority of life, Tony was a vivacious young man who enjoyed socializing with online gaming friends, as well as watching the WWE, Phoenix Suns, and Arizona Cardinals sports teams. Everyone who knew Tony understood that all other activities ceased when his favorite teams were playing a game.
Tony was well-known for his "thousand-watt" smile and laid-back attitude. He was an inspiration to all who knew him and exemplified the definition of one that met life's challenges with grace and courage.
Tony was preceded in death by his grandparents, Robert and Shirley Lingbloom and John and Lillian Steele.
Tony is survived by his parents, John and Elaine (Lingbloom) Steele, brother Shayne; uncles Jim (Kim) Lingbloom and Tom (Trudy) Lingbloom, as well as numerous family members and friends who touched his life in a positive way.
A graveside service will be held at the Elsie Cemetery on Thursday, May 16, 2024, at 11:00 am, with Pastor Bill Williams officiating.
Bullock-Long Funeral Home of Grant is in charge of arrangements.
