Leonidas Dizes, 93, passed away peacefully on Monday, December 19, 2022 at Humber River Hospital.
Louie, as he was known to his family and friends, was born on March 29, 1929 in a small village outside of Sparta, Greece. Leaving behind a career as a proud police sergeant, he emigrated to Canada in 1956 where he met and married the love of his life, Theoni. They worked hard as a couple to establish a home and secure life for their daughters, Anastasia and Cathy, giving them all the love and support they could ever need.
Louie was the backbone of his family and a good friend to many. He was predeceased in death by his beloved Theoni in 2020. He leaves behind his dedicated and loving daughters Anastasia and son-in-law Nick, Cathy and son-in-law Jim and his grandchildren Elena, Tania, Joanna and Anthony whom he absolutely adored and was extremely proud of. He will be dearly missed by his sister-in-law Valerie, brother-in-law Chris and his loving niece Xenia and her husband Toli as well as their children Zaharoula and Thomas.
Louie’s love and humor has touched us all and we will honor his memory everyday.
Love and miss you Dad ❤️
