Nick was the proud owner/operator of Toronto Pharmacy. He had a real passion for dealing drugs. He loved spending time with friends and family. He also enjoyed drinksand his time at the local watering hole. He retired in 1999 and continued partying like it was 1999- up until last week.

He will be sadly missed and loved by all who knew him.

Nick was preceded in death by his father, George C. Strovilas, mother, Anna M. Platko Strovilas Falasca (Mario) and brother, Crist G. Strovilas.

Surviving is his sister, Margaretta Perun of Toronto; his three lovely, amazing, wonderful daughters, all of Toronto: Deidra L. Strovilas-Lathem (widow of Charles R.), Teresa D. Strovilas, and Jennifer N. Strovilas, his favorite and the author. Nick also leaves behind his close friend, Linda K. Berg of Toronto and a few special grandchildren, nieces and nephews.
