Not sure what to say?

Pappou had a heart of gold and loved to make people laugh. He had stories that lasted for hours and I miss listening to his voice. He meant so the world to me and it has been a hard year without him. We had such great memories with him always driving around with him in our “first class cars” as he would call it. Trips to the mall, and traveling to Greece. I am blessed that he was able to meet his Great-grandson and Pappou never wanted to let him go when he was first born. Even though he left...

Dear Estelle and Pete, In trying to find a way to contact you, I found this, and I am so sorry to hear of your loss. The words you wrote about your father were so beautiful. I hope that time and good friends are helping you through this difficult period. (I am the lady who rented the Wyoming St. home from you in the 1980's.) My daughter Melanie, my son A.J. and myself send the deepest condolences to you.
Most sincerely,
Susan Clayton-Bailey ([email protected])

Pappou was the kind of man that loved a Great Time. He always enjoyed good company and I think I get my free spirit from him. I miss him so much and there isn't a day that goes by where I don't think about him. I know he has found Peace and he is with Yia Yia and Theo John in the Paradise of Heaven. I love you Pappou. May His Memory Be Eternal.

As I look back at my life as a young girl I thank God for the wonderful parents that were given to me and for my fun loving younger brothers. I have so many great memories of my parents and family but one of my fondest ones was when I was a young girl and my dad wanted to take me down a slide. He had never gone down a slide before and was laying on his back. My mother at the end of the slide kept saying “sit down, don't lay down.” The entire time he was laughing and we went down the slide...

Dear Estelle and family,

I'm so sorry to hear about your dad. May his memory be eternal. Eonia aftou i mnimi.
