George and Denise,
Lunch at Blueberry Hill/Homewood won't be the same without "Mama" to greet us. Your mother was a wonderful woman who became a great friend to Steffi and me during our daily visits to the restaurant.
Mama was proud of her children and spoke of you always. She beamed with pride at her opportunity to contribute, in her own inimitable way, to the Blueberry Hill success story.
I will never forget her ever-present smile and sense of humor. Oh, how I loved to joke with her. And, oh, how she loved to joke back.
I admired her strong, common-sense values, work ethic and love of family-all of which permeated our many conversations over the years. Definitely an unforgettable person who could make us smile and enjoy a laugh on the toughest of days.
We will remember her lovingly.

I have encountered a handful of strong and tough Greek women in my life, my Thea Toula was one of them. There was nothing or anything or anyone for that matter, that can hold her back or keep her down. I will greatly miss her smile and laughter and the way she would call me "Honey" or "Babe", but most of all I will miss her 'pep' talks to me. To my cousins George and Denise, your Mother was a true benchmark of class and character and she will be greatly missed but never forgotten. Zoe se sas.
With Love,
Cousin Maggie
