Dateline: Taunton, MA

Stephen W. Samuelson, age 73, of Taunton, formerly of Hanson, passed away peacefully, surrounded by his loving family on Monday, June 13, 2022 at Rhode Island Hospital in Providence. He was the beloved companion of the late Constance G. Johnson, who recently died on May 11, 2022.

Born in Boston, MA on August 18, 1948, he was a loving son of the late Harold R. and Lucille D. (Ruggiero) Samuelson.

Steve grew up in Scituate and was a 1965 graduate of Scituate High School. During the Vietnam War, he proudly served his country for four years in the United States Air Force and was honorably discharged on October 10, 1966 with the rank of Sergeant.

Prior to retiring, Mr. Samuelson had worked as an Electronic Technician. He had made his home in Taunton for the past three years and was a former longtime resident of Hanson, where he raised his daughters with his late former wife Elaine.
