It is with heavy hearts that we announce the sudden passing of our family’s matriarch. She was an amazing and wonderful wife, mother, grandmother (yiaya) and aunt. Helen leaves her loving husband of 60 years, Loukas, her true love. Helen arrived in Canada on July 27, 1959 and after knowing Loukas for 4 days, they married on August 1, 1959. They lived and worked together for those 60 years.
Helen leaves her 3 children, John (Marvalee), George (Ann) and Aspasia; grandchildren, Nicholas, Broden, Loukas, Alexander and Apostolos.
Helen gave everything she had to everyone. She would give you the shoes off her feet if you didn’t have any. She had a beautiful spirit and was very giving and very caring. She leaves a big hole in our hearts.
A Service will be held on December 30, 2019 at 11: 30 am in the Ypapanti Greek Orthodox Church of Victoria at 4648 Elk Lake Drive followed by Burial at Royal Oak Burial Park.
Condolences may be offered to the family below.

Carren and Ed Dujela There are no words that can ease the pain of a loss of your mother and grandmother. We always stopped to chat when we were out and when the boys were little the always received a hug and cheek squeeze. May your memories of love and family sustain you through this difficult time. Carren, Ed, Roman & Marino Dujela

The Very Rev. Fr. George Tolias Dearly Beloved Eleni we will miss you and especially your Beloved Husband Lukas. It was so nice to meet you and Lukas at the Hospital a little while ago when Lukas had some health challenges and we were able to pray together and received Holy Communion. It seems to me it was a Divinely Inspired preparation for all of us to always be ready for the ONE WAY TRIP that one day sooner or later will bring all us to our NEW LIRE UNTO ETERNITY where we will meet again in God’s timing for every one of us. We Dearly Love You and we will miss you here on earth. May Your Blessed Memory Be Eternal.

Suzanne Koutsodimos We will always remember your mom fondly. She was a spark; whenever we bumped into her and your dad there was always time to have a chat, always a fun remark about kids or grand kids and how they were doing. It felt like home whenever we saw them. Our sincere condolences to the whole family and especially to your dad.
Sincerely, Suzanne and Aris Koutsodimos
