Anthony Dennis "Tony" Drakos

Sorry for lost

I loved Tony. He was a very nice to me for a very long time. I didn't know him on a personal level but I had purchased video games from him. Most of which I still own. I have been a customer of his since I was 8 years old. I am now in my 30s. He was a very nice man who always took the time to ask how I was doing and really cared about it. He tried cheering me up after my mother passed and after my father got sick and was very genuine and caring and had great advice. He was one of the good...

I just met Tony a few weeks ago when I was drawn in to his store with some childhood toys to sell. Unknowingly, we had attended the same Greek church years ago and his son is good friends with my daughter's boyfriend. It didn't take me long in my 30 minutes visiting with him that he was Greek, we had the same love for people, and how genuinely kind and charitable he was. We both agreed that nothing happens by chance. I am so thankful God led me there that day. I felt a special connection. An...

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

Tony´s friendship started when we were about 2years old. Played every day since we were next door neighbors see you soon my friend at the sandbox in heaven

Mr. Tony was a true disciple of Christ. He had a kind heart and a gentle spirit. My husband and we will surely miss him dearly. We had the privilege to spend the past couple of Thanksgivings and Christmas' with him. I can truly hear him say I'm home now don't cry for me. Mr. Tony never met a stranger and always managed to talk about the Lord. He never failed to give him glory.

Met Tony many years ago and have enjoyed our many conversations ever since. Personally witnessed him sharing the gospel with both friends and strangers in his unique Tony way. He always made folks feel welcome and would listen to their concerns, share wisdom about religion and politics, and give advice on home remedies for ailments. Sincere condolences to the family. Tony is already missed by those who knew him.

My husband and I met Tony through collecting toys. After five minutes, the conversation quickly turned to religion and at times politics. Regardless of current affairs or the ups and downs of life, Tony always had something positive to say. Always encouraging. Always praising God. A bright light with a bright smile. I think many times we stopped by to see him more than look at toys. He will be missed.

My condolences to the Drakos Kingsport family. Tony is my cousin and was very special in my life especially as a young boy. We took many family vacations to Kingsport in the summer. Every time there was special. One of my fondest memories was when I stopped by the house unannounced while working at a client in Kingsport. Knocked on the door, Tony opened a for a split second he did know it was me, then his eyes lit up and that big smile came to his face. He reached out and gave me the...
