It is with deep sadness to share that Dr. Felix Iroanyah, born December 19th, 1941, passed away at Credit Valley Hospital on Saturday May 17th, 2025 after a 17 year battle with dementia.

Dr. Iroanyah was a beloved husband to Coroline and loving father to Chukwemeka Iroanyah, Azubike Iroanyah, and Ngozi Iroanyah.

A scholarly mind, he left his village to study in the big capital city of Lagos, Nigeria when he was 19 and then moved to London, UK to pursue his undergraduate and graduate studies. He received his PhD in Economics from Columbia University in 1980. He travelled to the United States and then settled in Canada in the late 1960's. He met his first wife, Adanma Iroanyah, in the 1960's and they wed in 1970. Together they had 3 children, Chukwemeka Iroanyah, Azubike Iroanyah, and Ngozi Iroanyah.
