Floyd passed away peacefully at AgeCare Samac Oshawa on Saturday October 26, 2024, in his 88th year. He was born on October 8, 1937, in Oshawa, to Robert ‘Bob’ and Annie (White) Fowler. He was predeceased by his only brother Karl (June 1969) and the love of his life and best friend, Iris, his wife of more than 66 years. (July 2023)
Floyd worked as a buyer for General Motors of Canada in Oshawa his whole career, retiring in 1988. He loved being around people and engaging in conversation. He had an incredible ability to reach people in a deep and positive way. Floyd truly lived his life to the fullest through simple pleasures, chatting with friends and family, enjoying food, golf and travel. Hawaii was certainly a favourite destination!
He is held dear in the hearts of his niece Karla Ann Fowler, goddaughter Shelley Kossatz and many close friends. A very special thank you is sent to all staff at AgeCare Samac, especially those on Lakeview Park for their incredible care and meaningful connections made with Floyd during his stay there.
As per Floyd’s wishes, his burial and celebration of life will take place later. Arrangements entrusted to THORNTON CEMETERY & FUNERAL CENTRE, 1200 Thornton Road North, Oshawa, (South of Taunton Road and off Dryden Blvd, 905-579-6787).
