Dear Nicoletta, Dear George,
Dear Noel & Nicole,

One would think that it is hard to write about someone whom we have not met. Yet, it does not feel this way. It is of course with sadness that one has to reflect only now on this, but Noel's grandfather was a fixture from almost day 1 in our conversations, in Noel's tales. He radiated through all the stories and certainly through her comportment. He must have had an amazing effect on the people around him, and certainly on his...

Dear George and Leta
Uncle Costantinos as a rare person who always has been an example of excelent personality, family leader and scientist. I shall remember him as beloved uncle and wish in Greek "to xoma pou ton skepazei na einai elafry".

With deepest sympathy to the Theodosiou family

Dear Niki and George,
I first met father when he moved into his apartment next to yours in our Cambridge building. With us you called him father and that is how I will remember him. He was always handsome and charming even as he aged alongside all of us. As the time went by I marveled at what a supportive family you all were to each other. He was a wonderful father and you were loving children. That is how I will always carry my memories of him - as a wonderful father in a loving family....

From Ireland, deep condolences on the sad death of Papou, the wonderful, gifted person Noel and I have spoken of many, many times over the years.

In the translated words of our Gaelic blessing, Papou, I address this to you:

May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
May the rains fall soft upon your fields,
And, until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of His hand

with much...

We only knew you for a very short time Papou, but we will always remember your sweetness and your sense of humor.

I remember "Papou" from my childhood. He was a kind man with a twinkle in his eyes. He would promenade regally up and down Wheeler Ave. I always thought of him as a true gentleman

Our hearts are with you as we remember "Papou the Great!"
love,
Linda and Gaston

Our deepest and most heartfelt condolences. May he rest in peace.
