It’s with great sadness that we announce the passing of Russell Andrew Masters, at Scarborough General Hospital on September 24, 2022, at the age of 58. He was the proud dad of Monica Coral Young and Christian Young; the beloved grandpa of Chloe, Lily, and Coralina Young; the treasured son of Monica and Henry Masters; and the cherished brother of Alan and Sherry Masters.
Russell Masters, will be sadly missed by all family members, friends, and many people he encountered in his life. At 23 years of age, my daddy became a dad. He provided us with an apartment, food, and worked hard to provide for his family. My dad was a generous man who gave everything he could to everyone around him. He was fun and wild at times, loved fishing, and loved his family very much. He kept a tough image, but my dad deeply loved us all. He was very charismatic and he had many friends. Each one of us meant something to him. The memories we have of him will always be cherished.
Special thanks to the ICU staff of Scarborough General Hospital for their compassionate care for him in his last weeks, and the staff of St. Michael’s Hospital Transplant department for giving him an opportunity to prolong his life.

Funeral Mass will be held on Tuesday October 4, 2022, at 1 pm at Our Lady of Fatima Shrine, 3170 St Clair Avenue East (Near the intersection of Victoria Park and St. Clair). Russell will then be cremated.
In celebration of my dad’s life, lunch will be served where I will welcome you to talk in front of the crowd and speak about fond memories of my dad. This will be in the downstairs church hall at Our Lady of Fatima Shrine on Tuesday October 4, 2022, from 2 pm to 430 pm.
Instead of flowers, donations to carry on the lives of his children and grandchildren will be a wonderful gift for Russell.
