Father, please accept my sincere condolence on the falling asleep of your dear, and so vastly accomplished Presbytera. I know you won´t remember me but I first met you when I sang with St Vladimir´s Seminary choir, during a recording we were making at your church in Rye. Since then, I have held our acquaintance as special to this simple priest. Memory eternal! Fr Laurence Lazar

Nikki Chafos was a very good friend of my mothers, Helen Chonis Gikas growing up in Rochester Minnesota. Their mothers were close friends also!! They shared going to school together, and their Greek heritage. My mother often shared stories of their going to school and church together. Our deepest condolences to the entire family. May her memory be Eternal
