With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved father, Shokrollah Elahipanah, a kind and devoted husband, father, brother and friend whose life was guided by love, compassion, and wisdom.
A lifelong academic and a passionate lover of literature and poetry, he found beauty in words and meaning in every verse. His gentle presence, thoughtful nature, and unwavering support touched everyone who knew him.
He leaves behind a legacy of kindness, curiosity, and deep love for family, learning, and the written word.
He will be profoundly missed and forever remembered.
In loving memory of Shokrollah Elahi-Panah, the Elahi-Panah, Mahboob-Hossni, Afsharian, and Arbuckle families kindly request that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the Alzheimer Society of Canada. Your thoughtful contribution will help honour his memory by supporting others in need.
