Eugene Michael Crowley of London passed away peacefully at Victoria Hospital on June 10, 2022 at the age of 77.
​
Beloved husband of the late Jennifer “Ann” Crowley who passed heroically in 2003. Predeceased by his parents Liam and Penny Crowley. Absolute loving father of Sharon Diponio and Naomi Reintjes. Fun loving father in law to Mike Stuart and Mike Reintjes. Eugene adored his grandchildren, Matthew, Lyndsay, Ben, Jeremy (Diponio), Molly (Reintjes) and was thrilled to have a great-grandchild, Cooper.  Eugene will be fondly remembered by his sister and brothers, Charon Ackhurst, David and Alan Crowley, and predeceased by brother Barry.

Born in Dublin, Ireland and emigrating to Canada in the 60’s, Eugene spent most of his career working in executive level positions in the textile industry. He was well known for his outstanding comedic speaking abilities, worldwide travelling adventures and revered for his seemingly unlimited arsenal of ridiculously clever nicknames for all members of his family, especially his grandchildren and other assorted “slapheads”. Eugene’s family and friends will fondly, and lovingly, remember him as a gentleman and he will be greatly missed by his Waltzing Weasel family.

The funeral service will be held at Holy Family Catholic Church in London, Ontario, on Thursday June 16, 2022, at 10:00 am. Interment at St. Peter’s Catholic Cemetery to follow. In lieu of flowers, please donate to the London Run for Ovarian Cancer.

Bill was born in St. Mary’s Ontario on November 21, 1929.

He stayed there until in his words “it was time to hit the bricks” and that’s just what he did. 

The next part of his life was spent in the Royal Canadian Air Force before eventually landing here in London. In 1958 he met a dark-haired beauty from Cape Breton and not to be outdone, he promptly told her he was from Saskatchewan. This marked the first and only time in history that a man said he was from Saskatchewan to impress a woman. On the morning of April 21, 2022, he left us to be with his dark-haired beauty and love of his life Anna. He is predeceased by his wife Anna, his daughter-in-law Wendy Dufton, his grandson Mike Dufton as well as all of his brothers and sisters.

He leaves behind his five children. Chuck (Liz), Laura, Christine (Jedd), David (Sandy) and Rebecca.

He also leaves behind, once again, in his own words, “ A whole raft of grandchildren and great grandchildren.” If you knew our father you will miss him. If you didn’t you missed out.

Bye Dad. We love you. 

Cremation has taken place. Interment will be at a later date.
