Tony W. Heaton

Tony W. Heaton, age 60 of Trenton, passed away at Fort Hamilton Hospital on Tuesday, December 28, 2021. Tony was born in San Bernardino, California on December 7, 1961. Tony was a mechanic at E-Z-Go Golf Carts for many years before going on to work as a school bus driver for Lakota Local School District. He was a Color Guard Member of the VFW #7670 in Overpeck, Trenton Moose Lodge and proud Teamster Local 100. Tony had a love for hot rods, was a dedicated Mopar man, and was a fan of Journey and the big hair bands of the 80’s. He was known as Lakota’s Tiger by many of his fellow school bus drivers. Above all, Tony loved spending time with his family and will be remembered for his big, kind heart and big bear hugs.
