Dear Lola, Maria, Jimmy, Veneta, Chris, Stephanie, George, and Anna:

My deepest condolences on the passing of a wonderful man. He was a fixture in the choir for so many years. He touched all of us in the choir with his dedication and great sense of humor. And as former choir director, I can attest to the fact that he was an excellent bass and knew how to sing in a group! I will miss him.

Love,
Greg

Maria,

My heartfelt condolences to you and your family. I smiled when I saw the picture you selected of your dad. My dad just passed away on May 22nd and we recently selected a picture of him from his high school days. This picture of your dad shows love, youth, wonder and a handsome smile. May God bless you and your family. "There's one more angel in heaven; one more star in the sky".

In sympathy,
Nancy Harrison

Dear Maria, Jimmy and Mrs. Tatakis.
I remember back to our very early days together when our families first had the chance to become friends back in the late 60's. Mr. Tatakis was always such a warm and welcoming man. He always took the time to ask how things were and find some way to tease me (and us). I think it was a very caring and loving approach that makes me smile to this day.
May his memory be eternal.
William
