Published by Legacy Remembers on Nov. 3, 2018.


PAPANTONIOU
(Evan Arthur):
9.10.68 - 28.10.18 Taken from us suddenly.
My darling Evan,
You were the most beautiful husband and father. You gave me the best years of my life and two wonderful daughters who share your soft and caring nature. You were an absolute angel, and we adored you. We were your girls, and you protected us and looked after us like we were precious. You made us feel so loved and safe. Life will never be the same. You were taken from us too soon, we had so many more treasured memories to come.
May you Rest in Peace my beautiful husband knowing your girls will always be your girls, and we will try our best to make you proud of us. Wait for us in heaven, Vangeli.
All our love forever and eternity, Melissa, Jana and Talia.
PAPANTONIOU (Evan):
Our darling boy, our Vangeli,
We still see you as a baby in our arms. We see your first steps, first words. We remember all those days on the athletics track and how proud we were of you. You grew into the most amazing kind man, devoted husband and father. You were our rock. We love you. We miss you. Always in our hearts Mum and Dad x
PAPANTONIOU (Evan):
I was blessed to have you as my best friend. I could talk to you about anything. You were my hero. A national athlete with an Australian record still standing, yet unassuming, even in your modelling days. I was always so proud to be your sister. I will remember your smile, beautiful soul, authentic nature, warmth and compassion. Thank you for being the best brother, brother-in-law, uncle and godfather we could have hoped for. You always made time to encourage and support our children. Our hearts are in a million pieces. We miss you desperately. You will always be with us.
All our love Soula, Peter, Saffron, Baxter and Anaia. x
PAPANTONIOU (Evan):
To Vangeli,
Always kind and caring, always smiling. Always there for me.
I will miss you. Give Theo Costa a hug from me.
Deepest sympathies to Melissa, Jana, Talia, Soula, Peter and family.
RIP Vangeli Thea Felio.
PAPANTONIOU (Evan):
We remember that smile and now we're the ones left asking, "ke yiati"? Your time was short but strong. You will always be in our hearts. Love always
Theo Tony, Thea Argiri, the girls and families x
PAPANTONIOU (Evan):
To my cuz Evan,
It was only a few weeks ago when you turned 50 we talked about staying young in hearts and minds and not feeling our ages. Now you will forever be young. You lit up a room with your smile. Your girls will do that for you with that same megawatt smile of yours.
You've been taken away from your three gorgeous girls way too soon. We will always love and cherish you with a too short a lifetime of memories. It will never be the same without you. Remembering you forever.
Voula, Pete, Thomas and Jack
PAPANTONIOU (Evan):
Having spent so much time together growing up we shared a lot of experiences that will never be forgotten. I really can't thank you enough for all the special memories and your support throughout every stage of my life. You were always the life of any party and certainly lived life to its fullest. Super proud being your cousin and may you Rest In Peace.
Lots of Love, Taki, Kim, Connor, Alex, James and Matt.

Dear Lovely Mel; Beautiful Talented Jana, Forever Adorable Talia: So deeply saddened to hear of Evans death. He was our favourite Dad when you were all still at PLC! It was a delight every he came to the door. He always had time to share a laugh. He would be on the doorstep with that twinkle in his eye, telling you something funny about what you girls did! I never wanted him to leave. He was one of the proudest Fathers I have ever seen. He seemed to love the time he spent with you most of all. The sorrow you must be feeling is incomprehensible. His best qualities are living on in you 3 so he will never leave you. Sending much love and many many hugs at this tragic time. Fiona, Molly and Roel
