It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved father Chris Masin, at the age of 88, or as many knew him, “Crispy”, at Hospice Huronia Tomkins House in Penetanguishene. Married to the love of his life for 62 years, Leta, his eyes still shone for her whenever he looked at her. Cherished father of Daniel, David (Rose) and Kim (Ivars). Proud grandfather of Jonathan, Grant, Chloe, Lily, Nicholas and Aaron. Survived by his sister Stephanie (Peroff) and his nephews he loved dearly. And we have to mention his puppy, Cooper, who always made him smile.
Born in Prekopana, Macedonia, he came to Canada when he was 4 years old. A very proud Macedonian who flew his flag proudly in front of his home on Georgian Bay. He worked with the Macedonian community in Toronto for many years providing his accounting services as well as support whenever he could. Dad has so many friends, relatives and colleagues that highly respect him and throughout his life so many people would often tell us how much they loved him. He was a kind and respectful person always smiling and giving the odd wink here and there.
His career as an accountant for close to 45 years, was a part of him and that never changed. He worked tirelessly to eventually become part of his own firm, Adams, Masin & Tiley. His clients and staff were like family to him and over the years he helped many people with advice and created long-lasting friendships. Dad had a great sense of humour and always had a joke to tell. Playing cards was a favourite pastime with family, friends and the grandkids. Nobody could beat Crispy. There will always be a void for us, but Dad gave us so much love, leadership and many beautiful memories as the rock of our family.
He lived a full life and touched many hearts along the way. We will miss you Crispy! We’d like to thank the phenomenal staff at the Hospice Huronia Tomkins House in Penetanguishene. They truly are angels who helped us through this time. As well as the PSW’s who cared for him day-in and day-out.
