Penagiota "Pota" Gianourakos

Pota treated my family as if it was her own. I remember coming back from a trip to Greece and Italy after not having seen her in years. She sat down for 2 hours looking at photos with Jen and I, and was genuinely interested in hearing about all of them. Her interest and compassion for others made the world around her a better place to be. For these gifts we thank her and will remember them always.

Love, Brandon, Jen and Evan Smith

Pota was truly a wonderful person whose life touched and benefitted many others. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you during this time of grief. Deepest sympathies.

Our sincerest sympathies. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family.

This afternoon at the State House, a Senator gave a tribute to Pota & her ability to include people & to show her generousity of spirit. The tribute to her at the Greek Independence Day ceremony is so fitting. When the words of her kindness were expressed, I thought I would be glad to tell her; & then hearing the rest of the news, well, I think she would be glad to have touched so many & shared our Greek heritage and our Orthodoxy with everyone.
Love to her family & my sincere...

Pota will always be in our heart, we were children together and always my good friend, she will be missed

She will be missed, we have been friends since we were children

We extend our deepest sympathy to Pota's family. Pota was a true lady, showing her interest and compassion for all people and families that she came in contact with throughout her years of church service. We will all miss Pota.
