After a brave fight with cancer, Andrew passed away peacefully on Monday, August 12, 2024 at North York General Hospital. We would like to thank all the nurses and doctors who looked after him with much kindness and compassion.
He is survived by his loving wife, Lili of 68 years; his daughters Kathy (David), Andrea (Remo) and Julie (Cameron); and his eight beautiful grandchildren Mitchell (Manuela), Sean (Mary), Danielle (Paul); Matthew (Heather), Joshua (Christina), Jeremy (Sheri) and Riley; Emily and her lovely new great granddaughter Nala.
Andrew and Lili arrived in Canada after escaping Hungary during the revolution of 1956. He went on to study medicine at Queen's University while also learning English. He became one of the first general surgeons at North York General Hospital and had a long and very distinguished career.
We would like to sincerely thank everyone who has sent our family such lovely messages of kindness and condolences.
In lieu of flowers we ask that if people would like, they may donate to North York General Hospital in memory of Andrew to the Department of General Surgery or to the Area of Most Need.
Also, if anyone would like to share a memory or a message we would gladly welcome that on this website.
