It is with heavy hearts and great sadness to announce the sudden passing of Evgenia (Gina) Totsis, on Wed. August 11, 2022. Loving wife to Parisis Totsis of 54 years. Adored mother to Petros (Ana) and Jim (Voulla). Proud grandmother (yiayia) to Christopher, Victoria, Stephanie, Andrew, and Cassandra. Beloved daughter of the late Efrossini & Paschalis Traikos and sister to Christina Romas, Evangelos Traikos, Nikos Traikos, and Leonidas Traikos, and aunt to many nieces and nephews here in Canada, Greece, Belgium, and Australia.
Evgenia was born in Kelli, Florina, Greece on August 8, 1947. She immigrated to Toronto in 1974 where she lived and raised her family with her husband Parisis. She dedicated her life to taking care of her spouse, children, and home and always had such a positive outlook on life. She treasured and loved each and every one of her grandchildren. Evgenia was a kind, generous, loving, and sweet soul whose smile lit up the room. She loved to be surrounded by family and friends and always welcomed everyone into her home with open arms. She enjoyed tending to her flower garden, conversing with her loved ones on the phone as well as cooking and baking her traditional Greek dishes. Her family's all-time favourite was her cucumber salad and “patsavoura” dessert that will forever be a staple in her family’s life. At the age of 75, she leaves us all with many memories to cherish as she continues her journey to be with our Lord Jesus Christ. May she rest in peace and her memory be eternal.
“Mom your numerous daily phone calls will be missed, please never stop.”
We love and miss you dearly.
She leaves with her most famous quote: “…..That’s the story!”
