Allan Hopkirk, who was past president and a lifetime member of the Canadian Elevator Contractors Association, passed away peacefully on March 11 at age 82. Hopkirk had a deep and enduring passion for the elevator industry. In 1987, he purchased Trident Elevator of Toronto, Ontario, and remained its devoted and active president until his passing. He never planned to retire, driven by both his love for the work and his genuine care for the people who worked alongside him. Hopkirk took great pride in this industry and in the relationships he built throughout his career. In addition to his work, his other great loves were his family, his cottage on Six Mile Lake and his time in Aruba. Survivors include his wife, Sharon; son, Braden; and granddaughter, Isla; along with many other relatives and friends. A celebration of life will be held on April 26 at Angus Glen Golf Club in Markham, Ontario, from 2-5 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations to McHappy Day® fundraising campaign would be much appreciated.
