In Loving Memory of Chris Evanou
Son of Kole & Despina Evanou

With profound sadness, we announce the passing of Chris Evanou, who left us on April 1, 2025, at the age of 90. Chris passed away peacefully, surrounded by his loved ones after a courageous battle with illness.

Chris was born on September 25th, 1934, in Armensko Macedonia. He then immigrated to Canada at the age of 15. Chris was a beloved son, brother, husband, father, grandfather and friend. He was known for his warmth, generosity, and infectious sense of humor. Chris had a deep passion for his family, which was apparent to everyone he met. His love for life was tangible and infectious. He was a light to everyone who crossed his path & a selfless soul.

Chris is survived by his devoted wife, Dorothy Evanou; his children, John, George (wife Rosemary) & Marylin (husband Mike); his grandchildren Craig (wife Meghan), Megan (husband Mitchell), Michael (partner Stephanie) & Nicollette (husband Davis); & great grandchildren Kate, Emily, Macklin & Dario. He was preceded in death by his parents Kole & Despina Evanou, who were a significant part of his early life and instilled in him his love for family and tradition.

A celebration of Chris’s life will be held on Monday, April 7, 2025, from 4:00 - 8:00 PM at Pine Hills Cemetery & Funeral Centre, followed by the burial on Tuesday April 8, 2025 at 10:00 AM at the same location. All are welcome to join the family in remembering and honouring a man who touched many lives with his kindness and love.

Chris will forever be remembered for his unwavering love for his family, his zest for life, and his ability to make everyone feel welcome and valued. He leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter & light that will live on in the hearts of those who knew him.
