Fotine Rafailedes passed away on Wednesday, November 23, 2022. She was born on August 23, 1928 to the late Moises and Maria Rafailedes. Along with her parents, she was preceded by two brothers George and Anastas "Nasty" Rafailedes. She was a member of Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church and Holy Trinity Senior Citizens.
Fotine is survived by her children George (Carol) Caplea of Naples, Florida, Mary Atkins of Canton, Fredricka Stewart of L.A., California, and raised as her own, Richard (Angela) Nelson of Massillon.

Our Mother loved to dance and go gambling with her friend Helen (Sammi) Sousek. She also enjoyed traveling and took many trips with her son George and his family. We would like to thank Mercy Hospice for all of their care and compassion, and a special thanks to her aide, Angela, for her loving care.

I wish I would have known Aunt Faye had passed away . She was very very special to me. I spent a lot of time with her as a kid. Such a beautiful and kind woman I will never forget her and I think of her fondly
