He became a successful entrepreneur, dedicated husband and father, and an active member of the Greek Orthodox Church Community. He served his church as a former Vice-President of the Parish Council, Member of the Board of Trustees, and Chairman of the Real Estate Committee. He was a kind, sincere, and goal oriented individual with a great sense of humor and thirst for knowledge. Throughout his life he was committed to the ideals of Hellenism.
