Anthony “Tony” Jim Mullins, 57-year-old resident of Gatewood, MO, departed this life August 14, 2024. He was born October 25, 1966, in Panama City, FL, to Frank D. Mullins and the late Gloria Carter.

Tony had been the lead technician utilities locator working for USIC, LLC. An outdoorsman, he enjoyed hunting and possessed a “green thumb” that was the envy of all who knew him, and he always appreciated any opportunity to spot an eagle when he was out on an adventure. Tony had also served as a shrimp boat captain for several years while living in Beaufort, SC. Tony was patriotic at heart and loved to see the flag and our country honored. This carried over to his son, Spencer who is serving in the United States Army.

On February 22, 2020, Tony married Lisa Sumner. She survives
