It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our father and grandfather on December 19, 2022 surrounded by his loving family. Born May 25, 1939 in Kelli, Florina, Greece, he came to Canada as a young man in 1958 to build a better life.

A devoted husband to his beloved wife Agape (nee Ziannis) and cherished father to his children Helene (Joe), Sophia, Chris (Julia), and Mike (Zoe). An incredibly proud grandfather to his beautiful grandchildren, Nicole, Johnathan, Stefan, Trifen and Tia.

Our dad was a very hardworking, kind, genuine, courageous, and resilient man with the biggest heart. He was loved by all who knew him and will be missed dearly.

We would like to thank the staff at Parkview Home - Stouffville for the wonderful care.

Remember

Fill not your hearts with pain and sorrow,
but remember me in every tomorrow.
Remember the joy, the laughter, the smiles,
I've only gone to rest a little while.
Although my leaving causes pain and grief,
my going has eased my hurt and given me relief.
So dry your eyes and remember me, not as
I am now, but as I used to be.
Because, I will remember you all and
look on with a smile.
Understand, in your hearts, I've only gone
to rest a little while.
As long as I have the love of each of you,
I can live my life in the hearts of all of you.
