Stan Sirsiris

He was born in Agrinion, Greece, on February 5, 1931, the third son of Vasili and Ekaterini Sirsiris. He was predeceased by his beloved wife Erato (Rita) in 2002. He was the last surviving sibling, being predeceased by his only sister Theodora (Lola), and his brothers: Yianni, Dimitri (Jimmy), George and Nick. He is survived by his beloved son, Vasili (Bill) and his cherished granddaughter Erato (Rita), and will be greatly missed by extended family, scores of nieces, nephews, great nieces and nephews, and lifelong friends both in Canada and in Greece.

Stan was a kind and loving man who was always quick to let his entire family know how much he loved them. His kind heart and warm smile will be missed. Stan immigrated to Canada in 1955, marrying the love of his life, adored wife, Erato, in 1963. Together they raised their son of whom they were both very proud. Stan, along with his brothers George and Nick, opened Delphi’s Steak & Pizza House in 1975 where together they ran a successful family restaurant for a number of years.

After closing the restaurant in 2006, Stan spent his time enjoying trips to Greece, shooting the breeze at the Greek Seniors Centre, chanting at church, and cherishing time spent with his family.

Stan will be deeply missed. In lieu of flowers please donate to the British Columbia Cancer Society.
