Christie was a maintenance helper in property management in Facilities Services and worked at the University for 42 years. &nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Mr. Christie passed away peacefully at Etobicoke General Hospital at the age of 63. He was the son of the late William and Grace Christie and will be be missed by his family and friends. Among his work colleagues, he was admired for his sound work ethic, strength and excellent customer service. Christie joined York University in November 1979 and is remembered as a beloved member of the Facilities Services team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In his spare time, Mr. Christie gave back to the community by transforming himself into Santa to bring happiness to children in his area. He was also an avid lover of music and played the drums in a band called the \"Daniel Band,\" according to his colleagues in Facilities Services. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Former co-worker <strong>Domenic Feliciani<\/strong> adds, \u201cStu and I worked together at York University for many years. He was my helper. My \u2018little buddy.\u2019 A good friend and co-worker and liked by everyone in our zone. Whenever I was feeling down, Stu would always give me a big hug to make me feel better. I will always remember him.
