Obituary of Ted Sampson

Please share a memory of Ted to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
SAMPSON, Edwin Keith 'Ted'- 86, of Paris, Ontario, Canada, was surrounded by love as he passed aways peacefully after a period of illness on February 10, 2025. Ted was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother, and friend. He was preceded in death by his parents, Percy and Marion Sampson, and his first wife, Joyce Sampson (1979), the loving mother of his children. He was a devoted husband to his wife, Margaret Sampson, who shared many cherished years with him. Ted’s legacy of love continues through his children, Keith (Lisa) and Kay (Rawle), his stepchildren Deborah (Rick), Gregory (Lois), and the late Allyson, as well as his adored grandchildren Sean, Joylise (Tina), Keira (Tom), Janelle, Courtney, Mel, Natalie, Julia, and Zahra (Omar). His great-grandchildren, Isabella, Kai, and Ari, brought him immense joy and were a source of endless smiles. Across the ocean, Ted leaves behind his brother Barry (Jenny). He is also lovingly remembered by his dear cousins Iris, Sheila (Ron), and Ian (Jan) in England. Born in London in 1939, Ted’s adventurous spirit was evident from a young age. He was a skilled gymnast and an active scout. He later built a fulfilling career in the building trades and construction project management, always taking pride in his work and the people he worked with. You may have shopped in some of his better-known projects locally. These include Toronto Eaton Centre, Woodbine Centre, Fairview Mall, Don Mills Mall, Mapleview Mall, Limeridge Mall, Centre Mall, and Eastgate Square. Ted’s family is deeply grateful to the caregivers and medical staff at Brantford General Hospital, 7C, Palliative Care Unit, for their compassion and support. In lieu of flowers, donations in his memory may be made to Brantford General Hospital, Queensway Baptist Church or Ontario Christian Gleaners.
