Tony J. Langley, 69, formerly of Knightstown and Rush County passed away on Monday, February 7, 2022 at Morning Breeze Retirement Center in Greensburg, Indiana. He was born on November 8, 1952 in New Castle, Indiana to the late Herschel and Alice Langley. Tony has been called the Legend of Knightstown, Mr. Knightstown, and the Mayor of Knightstown, but his favorite was Uncle. The nieces and nephews called him Uncle Shrek because he was as big and gentle as Shrek unless you were on the receiving end of Tony tickles. Tony worked for the Town of Knightstown and retired after many years of working at Glen Cove Cemetery and Gas America. In his younger years he worked for Nate Hamilton's disposal and Fisk Sanitation. He loved car shows, classic cars, assembling model cars, fishing, and spending time with his family. He also loved his furry buddies, Willie, a Blue Dachshund, a Bulldog and Leo, a Great Pyrenees.
