Desi Zoltan Tandori
August 23, 1933 - November 7, 2024
It is with the heaviest of hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, Desi (Desző) Tandori, on Thursday, November 7, 2024, at the Ajax Pickering Hospital, after a long battle with cancer.
Born in Novi Sad, Yugoslavia (now Serbia) in August 1933, Desi came to Canada in the fall of 1966 as a skilled machinist with his wife Marta, their eldest daughter Marta, and their newborn son David. The family grew the following year with the birth of their youngest daughter, Judy, and over time, was blessed with grandchildren and a great-grandchild.
Desi approached life’s challenges with an inventive mind and loved the outdoors, music, and playing the guitar in his younger years. His interest in astronomy was a joy he shared with others, and he will be remembered for his bold personality and dedication to his family. Desi will be deeply missed by his loving wife Marta (Horvath), daughters Marta and Judy, son David, son-in-law William, grandchildren Max, Natasha, Nicolas, and his great-grandson Logan, along with extended family and friends.
He will be missed and forever loved…
