PLOUSOS, John
- 19 août 2020
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of John Plousos on August 19, 2020 at the age of 93 of Covid-19. Beloved father of Mary-Anne (Peter), George (Martha) and Kathy (Sylvain), grandfather of Jonas (Amanda) and great-grandfather of Camden. You are forever in our hearts and we will continue to cherish all of our wonderful memories of loving times together.
A life lived fully and well. Curious, innovative and unstoppable, it required a pandemic to bring our father’s life to a close.
A special thank you to dad’s second family, the Rolls Royce Retirees. Most especially Ron & Barbara and « The Cowboy » & Judith. He cherished your friendship.
Due to the pandemic, a celebration of our father’s life will be held at a later date.
The family welcomes the sharing of your memories of our father on this website.

John always had a lovely smile and we always chatted and had laughs. He was always helpful. I was happy to see him when I retired at the retirees Christmas luncheon and retirees gatherings. Very lovely personality he will be greatly missed. Best wishes to his family and friends.

15 septembre 2020 à 9 h 42 minI’m so sorry to read of your Dad’s passing. I’m in Apt. 202 and have been here for 15 years. I used to walk by his apartment and loved the smell of his pipe. When I would see him, I always asked him how he was doing, and he would answer “not bad for an old man”. It reminded me so much of my father. That’s what he would say. Thank you for leaving the notice by the elevator. Again- my sincerest condolences.
