It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of our beloved father, grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend, Eugene Samuels, 80. Eugene passed away peacefully on June 3rd, less than a month after being admitted to hospital with symptoms from what turned out to be Stage 4 cancer.

Born in KGF, India, to Norman and Mary (as one of nine children), Eugene moved to Canada in his twenties and built up his life through hard work, eventually retiring as a millwright with Unilever Canada. Along the way, with his ex-wife Mary Ann, and helped by family and friends, he laid the foundation for his own family, including his sons Wayne and Matthew, and the apple of his eye, his grandson, Lukas.

Eugene lived a quiet life and was fiercely dedicated to his family, his friends and his faith; in his last days, he had the good fortune to be surrounded by all three.

Friends and family may call at Turner & Porter "Peel" Chapel, 2180 Hurontario St, Mississauga (HWY 10, N. of QEW), on Friday, June 7, 2024 from 6–9 PM. A Funeral Mass will be held at St. Catherine of Siena Parish, 2340 Hurontario St, Mississauga, on Saturday, June 8, 2024 at 9:30 AM. Reception to follow at Turner & Porter.

In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the Heart & Stroke Foundation, Lung Cancer Canada, or the Trillium Hospital Foundation, where Eugene received wonderful care, not just in his last visit, but throughout his life.
