Nondas was a beautiful soul and a dear friend, first to my mother, and later to me. I always looked forward to our annual lunch dates around the Santa Lucia holiday. Every interaction with her left me feeling energized, inspired and hopeful. The way she signed her letters reflected who she was and the blessings she imparted to us all -- Peace and Love, Nondas

I was privileged to work closely with Nondas at the Nonviolence Institute. I learned so much from her. She was such a graceful, quiet, powerful woman. I admired her very much. This little state is much better for her having done all that she has done. Much love to you Nondas!!

Nondas was extraordinary. She was a lion with white gloves. Persistent and tenacious in furthering peace, justice and non-violence, she appeared polite, and soft spoken. I loved her spirit, energy and commitment. As a friend of forty years, she was thoughtful and caring with her attention and support.

Deep appreciation to Nondas for her years of work for peace and good leadership and for those in poverty in Rhode Island. She supported Ukraine with all her heart and ability. She has many friends in Ukraine who will also mourn her passing. Nondas exemplified grace and goodness. We miss you, dear Nondas. With love, Nancy
