Laszlo Gluck, age 90 passed away on September 20th, 2023, at Hogarth Riverview Manor. Laszlo (Laci/Les) was born on October 23rd, 1932, in Veszprem Hungary.
In 1956 he and his wife to be (Julia) decided to escape Hungary during the Hungarian revolution. They first made their way to Austria, and he would tell anyone who would listen about their journey of how they dodged Russian gun fire and had to outrun the German shepherds that the Russian’s would release to try to prevent their escape. From Austria they stayed in England for 1 year until they received refugee status to their final destination of Canada (Fort William).
Laszlo worked as a millwright for over 35 years. He loved fishing, gardening and story telling.
He will be remembered by his daughters Julie, and Linda (Lynda).
He was predeceased by his wife of 54 years Julia (2012) and many brothers and sisters in Hungary.
The family would like to thank all the hard-working staff on 6 North. They all gave the care, compassion, and best efforts despite being constantly understaffed. Thank you to Larry, volunteer from Hospice Northwest, and Ivy for being good friends and greater listeners.
There will be no funeral service. Laszlo will be laid to rest beside his wife at Sunset Memorial Gardens.
If friends desire, donations in the memory of Laszlo to the Thunder Bay District Humane Society would be greatly appreciated.
