Christopher Luttor, cherished husband, father, son, brother, uncle, cousin and friend, passed away peacefully on March 26, 2025, at the age of 71, surrounded by his loving family.

Born on January 2, 1954, in Ponteix, Saskatchewan, Christopher was the son of the late Dr. Charles Luttor and Maria Luttor. He is survived by his wife Eleanor; his mother Maria; children Graeham and Adrienne; siblings Charles Luttor (Cheryl Stanton), Krisztina Luttor (the late Peter Brand) and Carol Taylor (Jim); as well as his sisters-in-law Dr. Barbara Liu (Dr. Dave McNeely) and Donna Liu (Howard Munro); brother-in-law Bill Liu; and nieces, nephews, and cousins.

Christopher’s education and work history are diverse. He grew up in Toronto and attended De La Salle College. After graduating from École Hôtelière de Lausanne, Switzerland he returned to Canada and trained as a Heavy Duty Equipment Mechanic at Centennial College. He then spent five years on the family farm, Bala Hi, in Uxbridge, where he raised pigs and grew corn. Always a curious learner, Christopher returned to school and graduated from McMaster University (B.A.) and the University of Toronto (MIR). After Christopher and Eleanor married, he went on to establish a successful career in the insurance industry (Sun Life Financial Inc). He built his business through personal connections, providing individualized, face-to-face service to every client.

Christopher was known for his lively conversations, passion for the outdoors (especially fishing), handyman skills and steadfast work ethic. Family meant everything to Christopher. As the father of Graeham and Adrienne, he took great joy being in their company and took great pride in their athletic and intellectual pursuits. He was a constant source of strength, guidance, and love. Christopher taught them the values of unconditional love, responsibility, perseverance, and to have an appreciation for the great outdoors, leaving a deep and lasting influence on their lives.

We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to Drs. J. Myers, R. Goldman, K. Wasson, H. Wong, G. Sirianni, R. Chahade, S. Ghedira, K. Higgins, N. Sands, J. Mills, the Home Care team of coordinators, nurses, OTs and PSWs plus the dedicated staff at Sunnybrook and Bridgepoint Hospitals for their exceptional care.

A celebration of Christopher’s life will take place on Friday, April 4, at the Mount Pleasant Funeral Centre. In lieu of flowers, please donate to a charity of your choice in his memory.
