God saw you getting tired, and a cure was not to be. So he put his arms around you and whispered "come to me". With tearful eyes we watched you and saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly we couldn't make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating hard working hand at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us. He only takes the Best!

May the memories grow within you and bring you strength.

Love always,
Jim,Sia,Eleni,John,George,and Chris Sarantopoulos Greg Nicolandis and Elena Mallios
