    In Loving Memory of Sam Vesuna

    With deep sorrow, we announce the passing of Sam M. Vesuna, past president of the Zoroastrian Society of Ontario (ZSO) and the World Zoroastrian Organization (WZO) Canada, who left us on February 06, 2025, at SunnyBrook Hospital, Toronto, ON, Canada.

    Sam was an instrumental leader in the ZSO and a noble, humble soul. His unwavering dedication, generosity, and kindness touched the lives of many. He provided invaluable support to those in need, leaving a lasting impact on the Zoroastrian community in Ontario and worldwide.

    Sam is survived by his children: Jamsheed, Zal (Ballentine), Xerxes (Anna); his grandchildren: Rochella (Jordan), Cyrus, Alexander, Safina, James, Gavriel, Dahlia; and his great-grandchildren: Vanessa and Joshua.

    His leadership, compassion, and contributions will be greatly missed, but his legacy will live on in the hearts of those who knew him.

    May his soul find eternal peace.
