Sherif Tadros

Suddenly, but peacefully, Sherif was the beloved son of Odette and the late Saad Tadros, Born in Egypt, came to Canada in 1968 and lived in Lindsay Ontario for 3 years, and then Toronto, until moving to Kamloops BC in 2017,

Sherif was a true Aquarius, very creative and ahead of his time, as well as being a water bearer and a (bottled) water lover. A fun and sun lover, he was very much into fitness and aerobics, even leading some classes.

An eclectic music lover from Frank Sinatra to the Carpenters to Van Halen to Lil' Kim. Talented in clothes and interior design, he instantly knew what went well together and what suited the person or home (could've been a personal shopper for women or men). Sherif always knew the exact appropriate gift for each individual person and occasion.

Lived life on his terms but would often compromise. He had very good morals, being sympathetic and compassionate to others. However, he would always "say it to your face, and not behind your back", a very honest quality he lived by.

Maybe his most memorable gift, (and he certainly was memorable), was his uncanny ability to read people, and often very quickly.

Going through all of life's adventures along with his best friend and soulmate Doug of 34 years, he enjoyed lots of laughter, many foods (home cooked, take-out and quality restaurants, including some quite upscale), and watching movies. Sherif and Doug were seen to be quite opposite but as Sherif often said, there was so much in common. To all of those people who were befriended by him, consider yourself lucky to have met him and known him, he was a true original. His initials should've been LV.

Always very aware of everyone and everything around him, to quote Sherif, "my spidey sense is tingling". We will definitely see you on the other side.
