Tony Williamson’s Death Cause and Obituary: On Sunday, a Trafford man who had been reported missing was discovered dead in Cheshire. Tony Williamson has been named as the victim. Unknown circumstances are said to have led to the death of Timperley resident Tony Williamson, 62.
His family released a tribute after learning of the tragic news, expressing gratitude to everyone who shared social media messages, as well as to the public and friends who went out in search of their father Tony.
There wasn’t a negative thing said about him; he was a highly regarded and adored guy. He was a loving father and grandfather as well as our mother’s spouse of more than 30 years. His passing has crushed us immensely. During this trying time, our thoughts and prayers are with his friends, family, and community.
Since Tony vanished in December 2023, a thorough and comprehensive investigation that made use of several specialised resources from Greater Manchester Police has resulted in his official identification. Detective Sergeant Rory Leicester, who is leading the GMP investigation on behalf of the force and the Trafford district, added, “We have been in constant contact with Tony’s family and friends over the past few months, and we continue to send our deepest condolences and thoughts to them. We hope for the best.”
Many people have been personally impacted by this inquiry, and this is not the news that anybody wanted to hear. Officers hoped it was not in such terrible and upsetting circumstances, but they were keen to get the family and their departed loved one back to their home.
Many people have expressed how much Tony meant to them via the actions of Tony’s family and friends and the public’s outpouring of sympathy; we really hope this brings some comfort. Tony’s family is taking care of his burial and grieving, and they have asked for more privacy.
