Tony Lefever

Tony Lefever, 24, of Baker City, left this life in the early hours of March 24, 2026. A Graveside Service will be held on Friday, April 10, 2026~ 2 p.m. at Mt. Hope Cemetery in Baker City, Oregon.

On April 14, 2001, Tony Michael Lefever was born to Grant and Sandy Lefever Berry in Baker City, Oregon. Not only was Tony the baby of the family, he was their son.

From a young age Tony was introduced to the mountains and fell in love with them instantly. Whether he was following his Grandpa Frank while building a fence or hunting the “big” one, Tony loved being in the outdoors.

Although Tony left school young, he later attended trade school and became a Certified Welder — a skill at which he excelled. If Tony was passionate about something, he pursued it full throttle.

Tony touched many lives in his short time. He was always there for family and friends, even if it was just a quick hello or a check-in. He is loved by so many. He is now reunited with Grandpa David Berry, Grandma Helen Lefever, Aunt Jean Ann Main, and Uncles Jerry and Paul Shaw.

Tony is survived by his parents Grant and Sandy (Lefever) Berry; sisters Christina (Tyler Dewey) and Melissa Lefever (Cody Miller); close family Ashley (Shane Wilhelm), Cassie Main, Bryson Knowles; adopted son Colesen Gilstrap, the love of his life; grandparents Frank Colton, Karen and Bill Call; nephews Trey and Cameron Dewey, Jaxon and Judd Wilhelm; niece Madison Wilhelm; numerous aunts and uncles; lifetime friend Trenton Dowdy; girlfriend Josephine Choate.
