Help Tony Catoe's Family After Tragedy

Donation protected
It’s with tears in my eyes that I come to you all today asking for help. Friday, April 11, 2025, this world lost an amazing man by a freak act of nature. Tony Catoe was a man with a heart of gold. He truly had a love for the outdoors; whether it be fishing, rabbit hunting, or hunting hogs, you were sure to find him with a smile on his face. If you wanted to see him with an even bigger smile, just look to his side and see his children right there along with him. Tony’s love for his family was something many strive to have. Tony was known to choose the children over adults with anything and everything, telling you that it’s our children that are going to carry on our legacy and keep the love for the outdoors going. It didn’t matter whose kid it was. Tony lost his life doing what he loved with his son TJ by his side. Tony was truly a mentor and a teacher to many of us and will forever be remembered. Tony leaves behind the love of his life, Clarissa Cooper, two children, TJ, nine years old, and his little daughter Maya, five years old, along with two stepchildren and countless hounds. Tony was taken away from this earth far too early. The memories that we all share will live on forever in his remembrance. Today, I’m asking you all for a little help, whether it be a dollar or just a share. Please find it in your heart to help out Tony’s family with funeral costs and the financial challenges that will come with this tragedy. I would also ask you all to hug your loved ones a little tighter tonight as we all truly do not know just how much time we have.
funeral arrangements will be announced by the family as they become available.
