For decade upon decade, he made sure that each and every one of us felt like we belonged when we walked into Andreas Restaurant.Anecdote Claims · 77 wordsHe leaves a massive hole in the heart of the Greek community, of which he was a pioneer and a builder, and a massive hole in the hearts of his loved ones, including sisters Marikoula and Parthena; his children, George, Dimitrios and Kaity; his grandchildren, Mati, Anna, Mia, Amalia, Andreas and Adriana; his first great-grandchild; and so many people in our community who celebrated his life in Van Gran’s St. George’s Greek Orthodox Cathedral on April 15.² Thanks · 11 wordsWe will all miss him dearly.
