PETER T. "Pano" RODIS

How has it been ten years since you left us? I can remember your smile, laugh and your love of life. I first met you as a young boy and with your support, encouragement, believe in me I have grown up into a soon to be 41 year old. I´m with an amazing woman who I just know you´d love. I moved from Vermont to Florida back to Vermont and now am in Queensbury New York. Can you imagine that little boy now living with his partner and best friend in New York? I´m sure you can and you´re smiling. ...

Pano helped me, and I'm sure countless others, through many hard times in my life and improved my life significantly. He was one of the nicest people I've ever met. It was easy to talk with Pano, he communicated genuinely and caringly.

Pano was often quick to share the things he loved with the people he was with. I remember he had a passion for artesian or French bread, and would share his loaves with me. Pano also had a passion for playing and listening to music which he also...

It is with much sadness and a heavy heart that I receive the news of the passing of a very dear friend. I most admired Pano's humility, his love for humanity, his work ethics and professionalism, dedication to art and his family. Pano was a dear friend, classmate, and a mentor. My most sincere regards and prayers to the family.

With great sadness I learned of Pete's passing. He was a classmate at LHS-class of 1977. It was so great to see him at our 35th class reunion. His presence was significant and a joy to be around.

Mrs. Rodis, I remember meeting Pano briefly at the wake of Mr. Rodis a few years ago. My impression of him, was what a peaceful spirit of a man. I am so shocked to hear of this loss and I am SO sad for you and your Family ...he looked so much like his Father. He was born two weeks before me... May God rest his soul and may his Spirit be eternal.

It is with great sadness that we write this. Pano was a very important part of our lives for many years. He worked with us in a caring, calm and wise way. His presence on this earth was a gift from God. Geoff & Nancy Thornton

Rodis Family - Prayers and heartfelt condolences from the Hays Family. Pete was an important part of our life in Lakewood. He was not only my good friend, but he connected with my family as only Pete could do. He treated life and people in a deep and sacred way. The world is a different and better place because of Pete and I hope that brings you comfort in the times ahead.
All our love and blessings Jim, Mary, Debbie, Mom and Dad Hays

I was fortunate to reconnect with Pete at our reunion a couple of years ago. He made a positive difference in this world. My condolences to his family. RIP, Pete Chuck Greanoff
