Alan Samuels Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Herman Meyer & Son, Inc. from Feb. 8 to Feb. 9, 2022.
Alan Samuels, 79, of Louisville, died Tuesday, February 1, 2022 at his home. He was born May 1, 1942 in London, England to the late Sam and Rachel Goldberg Samuels. Alan was a driver with Enterprise and Alamo Car Rentals.

Alan's life story mirrors that of the soul. He left home at a very young age. He attended a Jewish boarding school and received a good Jewish education, and then he journeyed from place to place, finally ending up in Louisville. Yet, throughout it all, he never forgot his family, his mum, his cousin Stephanie, her children Sasha and Cheyrl, and even their children.

Alan was a world traveler. He was intelligent. He always remained a Brit with a love for his Chelsea Football team (soccer) and an affection for cars. He was generous, both to his family and to those in need. May his life in his soul be remembered for blessing.

Graveside services for Alan were held on Friday, February 4th at Agudath Achim Cemetery, 2737 Preston Highway.

I knew Alan since 1982 living in Lake Tahoe. We remained friends right through 2022. I am so sorry we didn't talk before he passed.. we always called each other every few months. Condolences to his extended family in England.

I have known Alan for several years and loved him very much. He was a good friend. Our conversations were always so interesting. we talked about so many things. I am so sad to hear of his passing but know he is at peace. I will dearly miss him. He told me he loved his family so much. Thank you Alan for being my friend.
