Eugene Dracopol

Eugene “Gene” Dracopol, 90, of Union Pier, died peacefully, Thursday, November 20, 2025 in the presence of his family.

His life began July 6, 1935 in Constanta, Romania, born to Dimitri and Lucretia Dracopol.

Gene loved life and saw beauty in all things.  He was an avid reader and had many, many books.  He was a history buff, but loved reading anything and everything.  He had a thirst for knowledge and an endless curiosity.  He enjoyed every genre of music.  He had a love of the ballet and his daughter remembers him taking her to the opera when she was young. His distinguished presence and kind heart will live forever.

Gene will be greatly missed by family and friends.  He is survived by his life partner, Rosalie Pompushko of Union Pier; daughter, Amelia Dracopol of Kansas City, Kansas; stepdaughters, Denise Plumb and Ninel Pompushko of Sawyer: and his beloved dogs, Pencil and Milly.

The family will observe a private remembrance.
