Anthony "Tony" Frank Phillip Konstanty

Mr. Anthony Frank Phillip “Tony” Konstanty also known for his artist name “The Caveman”  and in the small town of Marion, Kentucky often called "The Englishman" passed peacefully to his afterlife on Wednesday, November 30, 2022 at his home in Marion. He was 70 years of age.

Tony's passion was his wife and family, creating art and teaching others, reading to his grandchildren, and building things with his hands. He was a professional artist with a degree from Bristol Art College in England. He came to the United States after seeing the Beatles on the TV exploring the States. He travelled to the US in 1976 and hitchhiked until he came across his first job in America painting fair rides for a traveling amusement park, which brought him to meet Marilyn. Some time after his visit to Kentucky and meeting his future Wife he returned from England to pursue a life with her.

He is survived by his wife of 41 years, Marilyn Konstanty ; daughter, Anna-Marie Meives (Ryan) of Barneveld, WI; son, Max Konstanty (Vivian) of Boston, MA; step-son, Kirk Laird (Emily) of Lexington, KY; sister Maria Jacobs of Whales; brother, Jan Konstanty (Pat) of Phoenix, AZ; four grandchildren, Kaiya Meives, Kingston Meives, Phillip Konstanty, and Katherine Konstanty.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Jan and Bernadette Memering Konstanty and brother Stephen Konstanty.
