Not sure what to say?

It has been one year since the passing of my father. I just wish to thank everyone for your continued support to my family. We all miss dad dearly but we just have to keep him alive in our hearts and minds. God Bless
John Dedes

It's been almost a year and yet it still feels like yesterday. Adonis would be so humbled and so proud. To Chanel, although your father could not be there to walk you down the isle he was there in spirit smiling down and thinking "wow" "look at that beautiful woman", Chanel he would be so proud of you and everything you have done. Adonis's memory will live on forever in our hearts and in the faces of his children.

Adonis was a sweet and caring man. I wish I would of saw him more. I will miss him so much. He was there for me when my father passed in 04'. I will miss playing darts with him. He will forever be in my heart and will always be "the greek" in darts!!

I can't believe he's gone. I can't believe I went eight years without visiting him. Adonis was there for me when it seemed like no one else was. Kayla and I will miss him very much!

To the family:
Your father was a great man and an excellent teacher. Every time I saw him he would ask how my new family was treating me and always offer a bit of advice. Adonis always had a unique way of saying everyone's name. There should be a shrine dedicated to him!

With Deepest Sympathy. May the many memories ease your pain.

Pi Love,

Chanel and John,
Your father has left a legacy that withstands the test of time. You are both in my thoughts and prayers. With all my love,

Adonis,
You were my mentor, my uncle, and my best friend. You were there the day I was born, the day I left for Iraq, till the day I got back. I will miss our visits every week, so that I knew you were doing alright or the conversations we had and the drinks we shared. I love you and will be waiting till the day we walk together again.

Chanel, John, Uncle Dino, Kalliopi, and Elias,
I love you guys, and I'll be here everyday. We're family and the bond will continue....

We will deeply miss you. Our prayers are with your family.
