IVANYSHYN, Tony January 10, 1930 – June 17, 2018 We are saddened to announce the passing of Tony Ivanyshyn in his 89th year on Sunday, June 17, 2018 after a long battle with cancer in the Palliative Care Unit at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre.

He is survived by his loving wife of 65 years, Olga (Polischuk). Loving father of Steve (Maxine), Bruce (Tracey) and son-in-law Sal Mauceri. Proud Grandfather of Sarah, Graham, Katie and Lauren. Predeceased by his parents, Peter and Agnes, his beautiful daughter Julie Mauceri, sisters Terry Charanduk, Pola Parsons and brother Eddie Ivanyshyn. Tony was born in Birch River, Manitoba and lived most of his life in Forest Hill, Toronto.

He loved to travel for business and enjoyed spending many hours at ice rinks near and far supporting his kids and grandkids passions. Tony enjoyed his career, working with Addison’s, Manley’s and Motoski in the early years and after more than 20 years with Honda Canada, he celebrated his retirement in 1992 as Vice President. He was fondly remembered as a “Helluva nice guy” by all.
