Nicolae (Nick) Dumitrascuta, age 80, passed away on April 17, 2025 in Toronto, Ontario.
He is survived by his wife, Constanta, his daughter, Dana, his grandson, Declan, his son-in-law, Darren, his sister-in-law, Rodica, his niece, Simone and his grand-niece, Michelle. He was close friends with his brother-in-law, Michael Heck who passed away just one week earlier.
Born in Romania in 1944, he moved to Canada in 1992 and worked hard to provide for his family in a challenging transition between countries. A lot of people, especially the little ones, knew him as Taia, short for grandfather in Romanian. He was kind-hearted and determined, he liked to watch soccer on Sundays and enjoyed long drives to small towns to just have an ice cream.
He will be missed by his family and friends.
In lieu of flowers, the family is asking that you donate to Southlake Regional Hospital.

Peaceful Transition York
