It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Frank (Aristofanis) Piperias at the age of 87 on Monday, September 4, 2023.

Frank was born in Yiannina on March 3 1936. He always fondly reminisced about his life in the village. He immigrated to Toronto in his late teens with his father to start a new life in Canada. Frank also spent several years in Bermuda, but returned to Greece to find a bride. It was his good fortune that Frank met Paraskevoula (Vivian) and after 3 weeks of courting, they were married.

Frank was a barber and he took great pride in giving the perfect shave and haircut. He was also our resident opera singer who entertained us with his hearty baritone at many family functions. He was the heart of this large family that he cherished deeply and who cherished him in return.

Frank will always be remembered for his hearty laugh, easy going nature, and his warm disposition.

He is survived by his wife, Vivian, his daughters, Demetria and Laurie, his 4 grandchildren, Theo, Lucas, Ethan, and Julia, and his five sisters, Jane, Rita, Ellie, Lea, and Frosa. Frank is predeceased by his eldest daughter, Cindy.

Frank will be greatly missed and fondly remembered.
