It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of George Zelis, our beloved father and grandfather. Predeceased by his daughter, Irene, and his wife Sia, he will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by his son Pete, daughter-in-law Fani, son-in law Nick and his four grandchildren, Jonathan, George, Alyssia and Stephen. He is also missed and remembered by his extended family and many close friends both here in Vancouver and in Greece. George was born in Kyparissi, Laconia, Greece. He left home at the age of 21, first moving to Germany and eventually settling in Vancouver, where he met and married Sia, enjoying 51 beautiful years together. George will be remembered for his kindness, his warm personality and his amazing ability to fill a room with smiles and laughter. Due to the current restrictions, the funeral service will be limited to immediate family. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the BC Cancer Foundation.
