Obituary of EUGENE SAFONOVS

Eugene Safonovs February 27, 1928 – February 4, 2012 Peacefully, with his long time companion, Josie, by his side, Eugene passed away on Saturday, February 4, 2012, at the age of 83 years. Eugene came to Canada in 1956 with his wife and son, Gilles. He settled in Winnipeg and had six more children. Eugene worked at the Misericordia Hospital for many years as well as being self-employed. There wasn’t anything that he couldn’t do. He helped many people with their homes. He had a hard time saying no to anyone. Eugene will be lovingly and sadly missed by his life-long companion Josie, his children, Gilles (Lena), Paul, Nick, Noel, Frank, Louise and special daughter Jackie. He will also be missed by his grandchildren and nieces and nephews in the USA. A special thank you to the Doctors and staff at the Health Science Centre and to Father Gene for their compassion and care. A Funeral Service will be held at Cropo Funeral Chapel, 1442 Main Street, on Thursday, February 9, at 10:00 am.
