ECKEL, Paul Harvey - Peacefully at home in Toronto on Tuesday, August 14, 2018 after a valiant battle with cancer at the age of 85.
Devoted husband of Joan (nee Palmer).
Loving father of Stephen (Sue) and Cheryl Sampson (Ron).
Cherished grandfather of Allyson, Wendy, Adam and Daniel.
Dear brother of the late Robert (Vivienne) and Mary Drew (the late Ken). Paul will be lovingly remembered by his nieces and nephews.
After working 40 years at Atlas Alloys/Integris, Paul 'retired to play'. And play he did -- curling with the Weston Golf & Country Club; golfing with the Chalet Etobicoke Seniors and the Humberside C.I. Golf Grads, visiting with the GOATS (Grumpy Old Administrators of Transportation Services), active member of the Delta Nu Alpha Transportation Network and long-time active member of the Islington United Church. Most of all Paul enjoyed spending time with his family and friends at home and at the cottage. He will be dearly missed.
Friends may call at Turner & Porter Butler Chapel, 4933 Dundas St. W. on Monday, August 20th from 6-9 p.m. Funeral Service will be held on Tuesday, August 21st at 11:00 a.m. at Islington United Church, 25 Burnhamthorpe Rd.
In lieu of flowers, donations to the Dorothy Ley Hospice or a charity of your choice would be appreciated.
