Chris Alexopoulos

Born in Kastoria, Greece, in 1936. Died suddenly on September 27, 2024, at home in Mississauga.

Chris lost both parents at age eight and was grateful to be raised by his paternal grandmother Katerina and his father's siblings, Xanthippe and George. He came to Canada in 1957 to further his education and was proud to receive a PhD in engineering from the University of Toronto. He taught math, physics, and computer science for 35 years at Ryerson (TMU).

He loved spending time at the cottage he built, hosting guests, classical music, online trading, repairing things, travel (especially to Greece to visit family and friends), and corduroy pants. He disliked spicy foods, fiction, formalities, and paying for parking.

Chris is survived by his wife of 62 years, Carol, and daughters Karen (Steve) and Jennifer.

His family will receive relatives and friends on Wednesday, October 2nd 4-8 PM at Turner & Porter funeral home, 1981 Dundas Street W., Mississauga. A celebration of life will follow at a later date.
