Henry passed away peacefully at St. Michael’s Hospital in Toronto on May 31 2018 at the age of 96 years. Son of Ella and Josef, predeceased by his beloved wife Wendy. Forever remembered by his son Herbert (Maria) and daughter Sylvia, grandchildren Birgit (Alex), Patrick, Nicholas and Gabriel (Julia), great grandchildren Solis, Jolie and Adrian, loving sister Emma Gyallay, nieces Christine (Vince) and Bette (Stan), and numerous other family and friends in Canada, the United States, Austria and Germany. Henry was born in Vienna, Austria in 1921 and moved to Canada in 1951, ready to tackle new language and culture challenges and succeed in a new world. Succeed he did and he enjoyed a long career as an engineer with the federal government and loved to recall the many bridges and roads he helped build. Well travelled, he loved to read and complete crossword puzzles. Henry’s friendliness touched many people including neighbours and staff at local banks, stores and restaurants. Many thanks to his caregivers and hospital staff who cared for him in recent years and a special thanks to his close friend Herb who helped ease his last years and final moments.

We will always remember Henry and Wendy when they brought together their grand daughter Brigit with Dora’s three children Natasha, Istvan and Erika in Ottawa. The children enjoyed time together during Brigit’s visit to her grandparents including going swimming at Nepean Sports Club followed by sleep overs.
Dora will also recall many childhood times at Emmy’s lovely cottage in Quebec where all the grandparents, parents, cousins and friends spent fun times.
Thank you Henry and family for all the happy memories. May you also smile as you recall your happy moments together.
Dora Mozes-Tahy and family (Natasha, Istvan, Erika)
