He was born November 29, 1921 in Big Sandy, Montana, the 9th child of Martin Frank Balazic and Marija Frasz, immigrants from an ethnic Slovene community living in Hungary. Tony served with the Army Combat Engineers from 1943 to 1946 in England, France, and Germany. He retired as Assistant Chief in 1973 following 30 years of service with the Bremerton Fire Department.

He also served for 17 years on the fire fighters pension board. All who knew Tony often spoke of his courage in surviving 25 years of Parkinson's disease, his kindness to others, his fun sense of humor, and his leadership and devotion to his family and friends. His 3 daughters were so lucky to have him at the helm, and the staff and residents of Franke Tobey Jones (his home for the past 10 years) always commented how much they loved him for all these qualities as well. Tony and Audre Mae Freeman were married on September 30th, 1942. Mother passed away January 5, 2003, only a few months after celebrating their 60th anniversary. Dad loved the out of doors, so many summers were spent camping, fishing for salmon, clamming on ocean beaches, traveling to Montana to help with the wheat harvest, spending winters in Mesa, Arizona with other bird friends, and hiking in the Superstitions. He was a devoted Seahawks and Mariners fan, enjoyed WI bowling, and a weekly trip to the "Emerald Queen" was, of course, his favorite outing. Tony is survived by his 3 daughters, Mary Anne Fray, Linda Marie Huff (Sam Huff), and Arlene Balazic (Barney Alanis), grandson Sam Huff (Tammy Huff) and their children Dylan and Sidney, and granddaughter Stacie Anne Hardison. He is also survived by sister Margaret Balazic Grubb, age 94, brothers John Henry, age 101,and Joseph, age 83, sister-in-law Elsie Millikan, and dozens of nieces, nephews, grandnieces and nephews, and great-grandnieces and nephews.
