Daphne Pouletsos Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Nov. 28, 2001.
The Party House
Big holidays usually meant big parties at Daphne Pouletsos' house in Westwood, N.J. On Mother's Day, she decorated her tidy three-bedroom house with flamingos and invited all of her relatives — including those who were not mothers. At Christmastime, she decked the house with Christmas toilet paper and holiday napkins. She inviting her relatives on Christmas Day, followed by her friends and colleagues from Aon Corporation the day after.

She was, according to her brother-in-law, John Krachtus, "the family's social director."

But what Ms. Pouletsos, 47 and single, was really famous for was her Halloween extravaganzas. The decorations included witches flying through trees, gravestones on the lawn and sound effects at every door. Everyone was invited. Sometimes, 200 people would pass through her doors.

She would prepare weeks ahead of time. Before Sept. 11, she had already begun to take the Halloween decorations out of the closet.

Dear Pouletsos family, I am so very sorry for your loss. I actually just found out that Daphne died in the attack on the World Trade Center. Over the years we lost touch. For whatever reason, I was thinking of her today and did a search on the internet. I am so sad and extend my condolences to all her family. I have very fond memories of attending Jr. High School and Sophomore year at the high school with Daphne. She had an infectious laugh and was always a lot of fun. Love and laughter to all who had the privilege of knowing Daphne. B.J. Lee, friend & classmate

I worked with Daphne at Aon Risk Services. Daphne was so full of life. She loved to laugh and she loved holidays. She loved her family with all her heart. I think of you Daphne and you would always say you were approaching 50. To me you will forever be approaching 50 and it is followed by your full of life laugh. Continue to Rest In Peace and prayers for your family and friends.

Daphne, I've been writing to you for many years although, we have never met. You being a cousin of my father, James, I painted this flower for you on 9/11/20. I hope you were able to welcome my Mom and Dad in Sept. 2019. I think of you often and am praying for the comfort of your friends and family. Love, Denise

In honor and respect.

I worked with Hoechst Celanese Corporation in South Carolina when I met Daphne. She worked for Aon at that time .We worked on many projects over the years. I remember her laugh, her kindness, her energy. She became a friend, not just a working associate. I can still remember the feeling I had the day of 9/11 when you and so many other innocent people were taken away. I was in the office alone and saw on the TV when it happened. I was supposed to have a conference call with you in less than an hour. I will never forget how I felt at that moment.

You had sent me pictures of the view from your office. It was beautiful but I remember us laughing when I said I could never be that high up. You commented that some days clouds covered your window.

You were an extraordinary person and I think of you often, especially on the anniversary of 9/11. Rest in peace, Daphne. You are greatly missed.

Although we may have only seen each other at weddings, we were cousins. I grew up in Brooklyn (Tactikos and Cassavetis family) and was at Rutgers University on that day. I worried for my mother and only found out later about Daphne. I regret that I did not get the chance to get to know her better and continue to mourn her loss as well as all of the other innocent souls who were lost that day. My heart goes out to her family and friends.

For 15 years your family and friends have been missing you and loving you, still.
I just learned of you today. While watching the Remembrance programing this morning on Fox News, I saw your name. Recognizing that it was of Greek heritage, I notated it because I am Greek also. So, from one Greek to another, may you continue to rest in peace Daphne.

I can't believe 14 years have passed. I still often think of you Daphne and your laugh. A laugh that would travel though our small office space. So full of life. I don't think I will ever understand why so many good people didn't make it home on September 11, 2001. I thank God I knew you. You will forever have a special place in my heart.

I can still hear her loud laughter in the office. She made going to work a fun thing. I remember the time we sneaked out and went shopping for holiday stuff. She was one of the smartest people you could meet. I miss her and my heart breaks for her family. The good really do die young. What a lady.

To the family of Daphne



I worked at Hoechst Celanese Corporation (HCC) in the early nineteen nineties. Daphne was the IT consultant for Jardine Insurance Brokers (JIB). HCC was a client of JIB. I worked very closely with Daphne for a few years on various projects. I went to work for JIB myself in 1995 at their office in Vietnam. I used to speak with Daphne about coming to Vietnam for a visit and she kept promising me that she would eventually come. Today, September 11 2006 is the fifth anniversary of the loss of Daphne, an especially warm and friendly person. I wish with all my heart she were visiting me in Vietnam on September 11 2001.

Today you came across my mind. Out driving and the person in the car in front of me had a headset on. I remember our days at Aon and you would wear your headset to talk on the phone. Oh how we'd laugh. You made everyday a day to remember. Remember the love note....I Love you. It was our little joke about you know who. You laughed so hard when I left it on your desk. I wonder if "THEY" ever knew the "JOKE" was on them. Because through it all we still laughed. Thank you so much for making my life while there so much more fun.

On the TV they are playing the Big Brother 4 Show. It makes me happy yet sad. We (you, Molly, Millie, Barbara and me) use to watch it and talk about it on the phone & in emails. The show wasn't even over when that terrible day came. It just like life isn't the same anymore. We all know how lucky we are to have known you, but how sad to have lost you so soon. I just believe in my heart that you are in a better place. But I wish you could be here. With you family and friends. I will always think of you.

Christmas 2002



Another Christmas without Daphne and without the joy of her laughter. If there is one thing that will always stand out about Daphne is her love of the holidays. She would prepare months in advance. You couldn't meet a more jolly person. I will always remember her at Christmas and forever smiling, laughing and being happy.

Daphne: I was very shock when I found out you were upon one of the people who was lost in the WTC incident. My last time seeing you was when we both use to work with Jardine, Emmet & Chandler. I remember you as a very sweet person who always walked with a smile.



One thing I must say, is that I know you will make a beautiful angel.



We will miss you.

Daphne,



I can barely breathe when I see my pictures from our visit in 1997. You opened your home and heart for a week to show us around New York. We celebrated Father's Day with your family that year. IT is a time in my life that is unforgetable. I miss you so much. I never had the chance to tell you what an impact you had on my life. I never had the chance to mail you pictures of my baby in the outfits you picked out for her. I have them still in her memory chest. I will cherish the memories of your father's store,Conrad's. I remember meeting Beth and your other two friends who accompanied us to Boscobel. I remember the cabin by the lake. I remember the fear in your eyes when I almost missed the last subway out of New York and my arm was stuck in the door. I remember you stocking up on cream soda and chips ahoy for Donna and I to snack on at night in the basement, while you and mom had your own pajama party upstairs. I remember the Statue of Liberty looking like a trinket from your office view. I remember your laugh, your voice and your ability to embrace anyone and make them feel right at home. I miss you. I will let my mom, Carol, know about this site so she can write her own memories to you. May you rest in peace and god bless your dear family. They have been in our daily prayers for a year now, and will continue to be.



With love and remembrance,

Stephanie

Daphne,

It has been a long, long time. You and I had some good times together right after college. I remember your care and love, you introduced me to Cliff, your friend Beth, your family put up with my mother's calls late at night wanting to know where I was. You taught me how to laugh and love. I introduced you to the love of my life, Dick (now my husband, can you believe it!?!). I have memories of times at your family's cabin up at Seven Lakes, at Conrad's. My love and sorrow to your family, your mom and dad, Corinne and John and the kids. I wish we had stayed in touch. I realize now that I missed out on alot. Looking at your picture, you haven't changed, you are still and will always be the sweetest, most giving Daphne.

Love, Claire

We did not know Daphne, but my husband is the brother of Cam Sutton who works for Aon. I came across this on the internet and wanted to express our deepest sympathy.

I cannot believe that this world has been without you for a year. For four years, Friday nights at Conrad's were brightened with your smiles and contagious laughter. Your sense of humor, sparkling eyes, wonderful way with children and kind disposition will be forever missed. Not a day goes by that you aren't remembered and deeply missed. My thoughts and prayers are with your family, friends and coworkers.

May 12, 2002

Today is Mother's Day the first since that tragic day Sept. 11. I can only imagine how your Mother misses you. I pray she knows some kind of peace. I thought about you today, yesterday and everyday since 9/11. I will forever remember you and your wonderful laugh and smile.

To Daphne's family: My deepest sympathy goes out to you for your great loss. I work at Time Warner Cable and Daphne worked on our account for many years--even back in her A & A days. She always had a smile and a laugh even in a difficult situation. Many times I would ask Daphne for help in preparing special reports and she never once said No! She was patient with me even when I was new to the project and still on a learning curve.



I can only believe that with her kind spirit she is bringing a smile and a laugh to someone or something in a better place.

Meri Kantola

To Daphne & all of her friends and family at Conrad's...you guys have always been a family to me. I was crushed to hear that Daphne worked at the WTC - wasn't she the one who coined it "Hatch Day?" Daphne was always a bundle of laughs, and I always knew she worked somewhere else during the week - but was always there with us on the weekends, crackin' jokes, and wearing silly earrings....I would see her with her suits and sneaks, and knew she came from the city - but that would be behind her when she came to Conrad's and made tuna sandwiches for the regulars. I still cannot believe she is gone, she is a wonderful person, and my heart goes out to my Conrad's family: Corinne, John, JJ, Dayna, Jimmy & Irene, Aunt Anna, Vikki, Jackie, Beth, Nick, and all of the other wonderful people who I remember the faces but not the names of.....I will love you always,

Dear Pouletsos Family,



I met Daphne when I worked for Time Warner and she worked at A&A. Our working relationship flourished into a beautiful friendship.



As I watched the collapse of the towers, I prayed for sweet Daphne. She was a wonderful person with a great sense of humor and laugh that was truly contagious. She shared her birthday with my grand mother, which gave a us a unique bond. She will be sorely missed.



God bless you all.

To Daphne's Family; I am heartbroken to read about Daphne's passing in the WTC attacks. I had no idea until I logged onto the Westwood High School alumni website today and saw her name. I was at WHS at the same time as Daphne, but she was a year or so ahead of me, a glamorous senior, when I was a lowly sophmore. I barely knew her, but I remember that she was very sweet and well liked, and of Greek descent, like me. I send my sincere sympathy to all her family. I had long since lost track of her, but I feel like I have lost an old friend and I mourn her just the same. Sincerely, Kathe Clarke

My prayers are with the family of Dafane Pouletsos as well as all the victams families. I have purchased one of the bracelets with Dafane's name on it and wear it daily and carry a card in my bag with her picture so when people ask about the bracelet they can put a face with the name.

May God be with you.

Daphne,

The one time I met you, I didn't even know your name. I saw your face on a "missing" flyer at Conrad's. Thought you looked familiar. When I saw you lived on Taco, I rembered who you were. I live around the corner on Ward. The Halloween before, I took my 2 year old trick-or-treating. We stopped at your amazingly decorated house and I remember thinking what a friendly, fun person you seemed to be. We haven't lived in Westwood all that long and don't know many people. That day I was thinking it would be great to meet people as nice as your self. I only wish I could have chatted with you this past Halloween to get to know you better. Judging from all the dedications left at the tree in front of your house, you must be someone loved by who meet you.

I met you at Jardine then we went to A&A. We worked at different offices. We finally where reunited at the WTC. One day going to visit my son we found eachother on the same train. I didn't know you took that train. We always said we would travel again, but next time together. Sadly it never to place, and now never will. Daphine, you will be missed.

I have known and worked with Daphne for about 20 years. I truly to miss her. She was really close to her family and her cat. She used to send us candy on Easter and it was so good. You would not think that someone in Texas would even know anybody that was affected. All Americans were affected even if they did not know anybody.

May God Bless and God Bless New York City.

In the picture we can see the sparkle in Daphne's eyes and the warmth of her smile, both reflections of her heart. We are very sorry for your loss of Daphne. Our hearts cry with you.

America Cries

We see your sorrow-

and our hearts cry....

We can not erase your pain

but you do not have to face the anguish alone-for we-

-the American people-

are beside you.

We so desperately want to have the touch that brings you comfort,

the strength that gives you courage,

and the words to lighten your spirits.

And when we are left speechless

may the silence of our nation weave love into your hearts

to ease your sorrow.

May you find healing through our nation's strength as we-

-the American people-

face this difficult time together. Our hearts are with you. Teresa Jahn

Dear Daphne:



When I first met you at A&A, you brought such laughter into my life. You really knew how to keep me in stitches. We stayed great friend even though we ended up working on different floors at Aon. I remember you calling me whenever it came around to Christmas time just so you could check the catalog for whatever angels they had to put on your Christmas tree. I know you are going to be one of their favorite angels up there in heaven with that great sense of humor. Keep smiling my friend, may God keep you ever safe until I see you again.



Love Juanita

There aren't many people in this world that I truly look up to and wish to be like, but Daphne is definitely one of them. Intelligent, independent and responsible, yet always maintaining that youthful spark and great sense of humor; a wonderfully balanced human being, and a genuine friend, always sincere and honest. I miss her laugh, I miss having lunch together, and I miss her asking me to help her with her databases.



When I look up in the night sky and see a twinkling star, I like to think it's her, smiling down on all of us and wanting us to be happy. Over the course of the past year she had become more than just a co-worker whose workspace was next to mine - she was a very dear and valued friend.



I miss you, Daphne. Love, Marian

Daphne we will forever be linked by the Data Mgt. Dept. I think if one word could describe you it would be Laughter. That laugh would just go right through the whole dept. Remember how hot it would get in that tiny space. We had fans running and still it didn't help. Some might have compared it to hell, but you always made a joke out of it. I don't know how I would have lasted as long as I did if it wasn't for you. You gave such great advise. I will never forget the time I went shopping with you and I picked out that black dress for you. You thought it wasn't for you and bam when you tried it on you looked so GREAT!! You bought it!!! Your family, friends and this world will greatly miss such a talented and special lady. I will remember all the laughs and our breakfast meetings together when no one was watching. Thank you for the memories and all the great candy you shared with the entire office. But most of all thank you for listening. I will think of you often and one day we will meet again in a better place. God Bless.



Love Ya,



Maryann
