Mina, Peter, Nick and Kosta (and families);

I have always had tremendous respect for Mr. Davos. It was impossible to know him and not have sincere admiration and respect for him. Though they are too few, I have some great memories of Mr. Davos spanning the past 40 years. He always had a profound presence wherever he was - from the old neighborhood on Claymoss Rd. to Goya basketball games to taking his grandchildren out for ice cream. He was both a hero and a teacher in the way he lived, his attitude about life and in what he created. I always loved to see him and will truly miss him. You have my heartfelt condolences. I hope we can stay in touch.

Dad



May your final journey be a medley of violins and clarinets, as you dance to the heavens.



You were the pillar of my life, my idol, hero and friend.



As you told all of us; actions are louder than words, and your life thundered.



Rest assured, as a steward of your legacy that thunder will echo for generations.





Your loving son

PETER VASILIOS DAVOS
