EDWARD “ED” CARL YOUDAN

July 3, 1946 – February 24, 2025

Edward “Ed” Carl Youdan was born on July 3, 1946, in Rotherham, South Yorkshire, England, to William Edward and Patricia Youdan (née Duffy).

Ed grew up in England with his parents and two brothers, David (Christine) and Martin (Lynn). In 1977, he moved to Canada with Mary and their two children, Gareth and Amanda.

After the divorce, Ed met Ginger (Hilda) at Sahara Nights in Regina. They married on November 13, 1992, and together they raised foster children, Ryan, Davis, and Jessica (Robert). They cherished their time traveling in their trailer and creating lasting memories.

After retiring from Inco, Ed and Ginger settled in Morden, where they enjoyed welcoming friends and family to their home, often gathering on their big deck. In the late summer of 2024, they moved to Homestead, where they embraced the community and participated in many social activities. Sadly, Ginger passed away in September 2024.

Ed will be deeply missed by his stepchildren, Audrey (Ken), Robert, Sharon, Stacy (Ed); and daughter-in-law Erin (Gareth).

He was a loving grandfather to Nikita (Vitaliy), Aslan, Mathieu (Alicia), Jacob, Darcy, Eric (Ben), Alanna, Casey (Hamoon), Max, Joshua, Jordan, and Jade (Zack); and a proud great-grandfather to Veeka, Nikola, Ataliyah, and Ariyah.

Ed was predeceased by his parents; Ginger; and grandson Joey.

His loved ones and extended family will forever cherish his memory.

A private burial will be planned later this year.

In remembrance donations can be made to Canadian Cancer Society, Lung Association, or to a charity of your choice.

Ed’s family kindly requests that all of his friends and relatives take a few minutes to honour his memory by sharing photos, memories, and stories, using the comment section on this page.

To my very good friend Ed or Edward,

In the short time I knew him we became very good friends. We had so much in common. As fellow Englishmen, the same sort of humour was uncanny. We seemed to be able to read each others thoughts. It was as though we were mind readers. Ed was by far the best friend I ever had here and I will miss him badly, as will his family. I had the pleasure of meeting two of his lovely stepchildren, Audrey and Stacey. Lovely Ladies.

RIP My Good Friend.
