Christopher TAKACS Obituary

Published by Montreal Gazette on Oct. 13, 2017.
TAKACS, Christopher David Trenholm It is with the deepest sadness and most profound grief that we announce to you the death of our beloved son, brother, lover and friend Christopher David Trenholm Takacs (Chris) who passed away peacefully in his sleep on October 6, 2017 at the young age of 34 in Montreal, Quebec. He leaves behind his love and best friend, Virginie Letendre, his parents Gabriel and Barbara Takacs (Trenholm), his brothers Robert (Sandra Rourke), Gabriel Jr. (Tanya Gilmore), and Stephen (Marie Emma Vaillancourt), and his nephews and nieces Amanda, Robert Jr. (T.J.), Mikayla, Daniel, Hannah, Eleanor and James (Miki) and his many friends. Our beautiful Chris was a captivating human being. He was charismatic, joyful, positive, imaginative and athletic. He graduated with a Bachelor of Science majoring in biochemistry. His strength and determination allowed him to overcome his struggles, big and small. Visitation will be at Urgel Bourgie Funeral Home (1275 Dollard LaSalle,Qc H8N 2J1) Sunday, October 15, 2017 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and 2:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. The funeral service will be held at Saints-Anges-de-Lachine Church (1400 Rue Saint-Joseph Lachine Qc H8S 2M8) at 1:30 p.m. on Monday October 16, 2017. We love him so very much and we will miss him more than anyone could imagine.

Steve, ton frère Chris était un être unique. Quel charisme, quelle bonté, quel humour et quelle ouverture aux autres il avait. Le temps d'un sourire, on était déjà conquis. L'avoir comme frère, fils, amoureux ou ami proche a dû être la plus douce des aventures et le plus grand des honneurs. Nous t'offrons nos plus sincères sympathies ainsi qu'à Marie Emma, tes adorables parents, toute la famille et les amis.

Avec tout notre amour,

To the Takacs family and all of Chris's friends, I'm sending you all my love. Chris was one of a kind. I will forever remember his infectious smile, his energy and his amazing ability to make everyone he spoke to feel like the most important person in the room. I feel lucky to have known him and to have called him a friend. I'm heartbroken to be so far away at this time but you are all constantly in my thoughts. Lots of love, Katharine.
