Not sure what to say?

Thank you Mr. Bokas for your years of service to the Gulf Breeze Community. We always loved going into your pharmacy and seeing all the unique items. May you Rest in Peace in the arms of our Lord and Savior. God will protect your family.

Ilona Kistemaker and family of
Doris Olson Ferguson.

After all these years I still have very warm memories of Mr. Bokas, whom I met shortly after my family moved to Gulf Breeze in 1956. He always greeted his customers as friends, and in 1966 he and Max Jordan gave me my first job that didn't entail mowing lawns or baby sitting. My condolences to his family and friends.

Mr. George Bokas was a great man.May God be with the family during this most difficult time.

I was one of the " lucky ones", lucky enough to grow up next door to the Bokas family and lucky enough to have Mr Bokas in my daily life. He ALWAYS had a smile and a kind word and he ALWAYS made you feel special. To this day I still do some of the things I learned from him like taking a vitamin and a Cod Liver Oil pill everyday. I remember me, Sonthe and Victor piling in his old blue Volkswagon beetle with no AC for a quick run to the pharmacy where everyone there knew the entire town by...

I did not know Mr. Bokas personally, but whenever I happened to see him he always made me feel that he knew me and actually loved me even though we were just passing acquaintances.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived. Love, Anna and Mike Wright

Mr. Bokas was a very special man to me personally. I joined the Bokas-Jordan Pharmacy team in the fall of 1962 and worked there until the fall of 1967. He taught me that a smile, kind words, and compassion go a long way in life. He was instrumental in me changing my education goals to a career in Pharmacy. He influenced the University of Florida Pharmacy Department to provide a job for me during my years there and assisted me financially several times. When I graduated, he bought my class...

What a full and wonderful life for a truly terrific person. I am so sorry for your loss. May our Lord be with you during this difficult time.

Sincerest Condolences , Aspasia, Victor, Sonthe, Family and dearest friends. George will be deeply missed by all who knew him. May his memory be ever eternal.
