Later, he founded the Tony Houle Law Offices in Downtown Port Huron where he practiced law until just last year. Houle precedes in death, his wife of 39 years, Mary Lynn Houle, his children, Delaney and Braeden Houle, and a robust extended family. Visitations will be held on Thursday, April 4th with a memorial service the following morning, both at Karrer-Simpson Funeral Home in Port Huron. The Houle family requests anyone wishing to honor Tony’s memory to consider making donations to the City of Port Huron’s Rec Department or to the Port Huron Area School District’s Swim Teams.
