Obituary of Mr. Elias Perez

Please share a memory of Mr. Elias to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.

Elias Perez, 91, passed away peacefully at home on the morning of September 2nd, 2024. Son of Fortunato Perez and Maxima Datu, brother of Roberta, Igmedio, Francesca, Esther and Oscar. Elias was born July 9th, 1933 in Capas, Philippines and migrated to Toronto, Canada in 1994. 

Elias lived an amazing long and healthy life, and has touched many hearts in his journey. He worked as a welder back home in the Philippines, and got into a work related accident on the job, got permanent injuries to his eye and his body but still stayed strong. During Elias’ free time, if he was not watching his favourite Fernando Po movies, he was always outside. He loved to garden, go to the farm to take care of his chickens, spend some time at the casino, or watch his grandchildren play outside. He was always full of joy and happiness, and always so kind and generous to anyone who came along his way. He always made sure no one ever felt left out and would go out of his way if he had to. His efforts toward his family and friends will never be forgotten.

Elias leaves behind his loving wife, Consolacion Timbol Perez and eight of his children, Evangeline, Luzviminda, Emmanuel, Roberto, Hernando, Teresita, Jenalyn, and Catherine. Also twelve grandchildren, Marc, Michael, John Kenneth, Casey, Tessa, Mavis, Josh, Jolina, Leo, RJ, Xander and Kassandra. And five great grandchildren, Clive, Calista, Timothy, Chryselle and Xavier. He will also have one more great grandchild on the way, expected to meet the world in October 2024. 

Our beloved Tatay/Lolo Elias, you will be heavily missed, but never forgotten. We love you forever and always.
