With profound love and deep sorrow, the family of Ariadni Kalisperas announces her passing on December 10, 2025, at the age of 78. Ariadni was born on January 12, 1947, in the village of Peyia, Paphos, Cyprus, where she spent her early years surrounded by family, tradition, and the beauty of the Mediterranean landscape she carried in her heart throughout her life.
In 1964, at just seventeen years old, Ariadni bravely immigrated to Canada in search of new opportunities and a brighter future. It was there that she met the love of her life, Andreas Kalisperas, with whom she built a home filled with devotion, laughter, and a deep sense of family.
Together, they had four children: their beloved late daughters Marina, their sons Michael (Luisa) and Chris (Juliana). Ariadni’s strength and resilience guided her family through both joys and hardships, and her unwavering love was a constant source of comfort.
A proud and cherished grandmother, Ariadni leaves behind four adored grandchildren—Julia, Andrew (Chris), Noah, and Penelope—each of whom brought her endless happiness.
Ariadni will be remembered for her compassion, her generosity, and the way she made everyone feel welcome at her table. Her legacy lives on in the values she instilled in her children and grandchildren: kindness, perseverance, and the importance of family.
She will be forever loved and deeply missed by all who knew her.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly asks for donations to be made to The Sick Kids Foundation. To donate, follow the "Donation" tab in the top right corner of the website.
