Cyril was born in Montreal, Canada in 1942. He worked for Palm Beach Menswear and Tropic Formalwear in Canada and New York. He moved to Van Nuys in the late 1970’s working for Tropic Formalwear where he met Peggy. He worked for several years for Alan’s Tuxedos in Fullerton before moving to Temecula and opening his own business, Black Tie Tuxedos.

In the late 90’s, he sold his formalwear business to join wife Peggy in running their several Gold Crown Hallmark stores located in the Temecula and Murrieta area. He enjoyed spending time with his family, playing senior softball, golfing, reading, garden work, and lounging poolside in the sun.

He will always be loved and missed immensely.
