My Uncle Christo loved kids and especially his grandchildren. My own daughter called him Pappou. I will always have memories of a fair and just man, a well read and proud Greek person. My daughter asked me..."Does this mean Pappou Christo will be an angel in heaven looking over me?" He will. And he will look over all of us. My deepest sympathy and condolences go to his immediate family, Thia Maritsa, (Mia), Tasia and Kosta. And how proud Papou Christo is of his three boys the grandkids. Especially to be thankful for the strong shoulders of Christopher and Teddy who helped to carry Papou Christo to his next journey. Zoe se sas!

In this sad time and with love we wish you all to find peace again.
Love,
Georgia and Epiphany
