Giorgo mou,
I've been thinking of you a lot this week. Easter was your favorite holiday. I remember us getting ready for Easter Dinner. This morning I was looking out the kitchen window and I saw the psistaria and I felt that I saw you out there cooking the lamb like you did every year. Now you are in the most beautiful place of all for Easter. Kali Anastasi my Agape.
Love - Nancy

Giorgo mou,
I can't believe it was one year on December 8th that I lost you. I'm sorry that I didn't write in your book on your exact anniversary date but I just didn't have the strength to do it because I miss you very much and I love you very much. I will try to get stronger but I will never forget you and you will be in my heart as long as I live and God decides to bring us back together. I'll be strong because I know that's what you would want me to do and I know you wouldn't want me to get sick. What's helping me to get through this is by thinking of all the wonderful years we had together and I thank God every night for that. You are in my thoughts always. Rest in peace! I will love you forever.
Love - Nancy

Giorgo mou,
Today is 6 months ago that I lost you. It is so hard without you and it is so lonely. Roko, Chelsea, and Daisy miss you very much also. Elena and Mom came over the other day and they even said the house is very empty without you. It is such a shock that you are gone and I miss you very, very much. I cry everyday and I pray that I can at least see you in my dreams. I catch myself talking to you when I have a problem. I know someday we will be together again. My life is empty without you. I love you my Giorgo. You brought life into our home.
Love,

Giorgo mou,
This has been the hardest week for me because of Easter and your nameday coming up. Easter was your favorite holiday. We would get up on Holy Saturday morning and go to St. Katherines to par take in Holy Communion, then we would come home and change and you would be excited because we would go to Zouras farm and pick up the whole lamb you ordered. You always spent all week preparing for Easter by marinating the pork and chicken for your souvlakia and the whole chickens for the rotisserari that everyone loved and of course the lamb. The more people that would come over on Easter Sunday the happier you were. Now you are resting in the most beautiful place of all and having a beautiful Easter. Xristos Anesti my agapi and Xronia Polla for your nameday. I miss you very much.
Love - Nancy

Giorgou mou,
Tommorow will be 4 months since I lost you. People have told me time and time again to keep strong and time will heal all but I don't think so. I miss you more and more each day. I still have your things here at the house and I don't have the heart to back them away. It hurts just thinking of it. Having your things here comfort me but I will never, ever get over losing you. We were together for 30 years and you loved me so much and took care of me. I remember the time when we found out I had cancer and when the doctor told us you started crying in the office. We spent every moment together and we would go everywhere together and I feel so lonely now. Thank God I have our babies and they miss you very much too. The house is empty without you. I wish you can come back. Easter is coming soon and I know that was your favorite holiday. You enjoyed cooking the whole lamb on the souvla on one side and your chicken on the other side. And everyone loved your souvlakia. You would always invite the whole family, friends and everyone enjoyed themselves. I know this Easter you are in the most beautiful place of all. On Easter I will be home remembering the wonderful Life we had together and what a wonderful husband I had. You will be in my heart forever. I love you very, very much and I know that one day we will be together again.
Rest in peace my Agapi,
Love - Nancy

Wow! What can I say that has not been said already. You are greatly missed by many people.
It really came a shock to all of us when you passed. I still can't believe it. I think it'll set in when I come back to the states and you won't be at the restaurant having a glass of red wine or at the house when I bring Thea Nancy back at some ridiculous hour from our shopping excursions :)
I will miss your humor. Some of the things you did and said were HYSTERICAL! Coppy nailed them all. I really wish my boys could have heard you say, "No, running!" That was a true classic. I wonder if the Redskins know that they lost their best armchair quarterback.
I remember when you used to come and pick up Thea Nancy from the "beer joint" or the apartments with that Greek fisherman's cap. You used to pat me on the head with your heavy hand and mess up my hair. You would then pinch Petranda's cheeks and laugh. If you weren't doing that you would take your whole hand and wipe it down our face. You loved all your nieces and nephews in your own special way. We love you too.
You should be very proud of Thea Nancy. She is very strong!! She misses you a lot but she's doing well.
Keep an eye out on all our relatives up there. keep them laughing and keep cheering for those Redskins. Don't worry about Thea Nancy, we'll take care of her now.
FILAKIA!
One last thing....CHICKEN is much better than TURKEY!! There it's been stated and recorded.
Miss you xoxo

Nancy,
I am so very sorry for your loss. Chris called me yesterday to tell me the news. If there is anything I can ever do for you or if you ever need to get in touch with Chris you can call me or write me. I know you are suffering so much without George. Chris is a mess and still in shock. I have to admit I am in shock also, I didn't know he was sick. He was a very good man and he will be missed greatly. Please email me when you are up to it. You are in our prayers.
Love,

Giorgo mou,
Tommorow will be three months since I lost you. It is still so hard to believe. I miss you very much more and more each day, the pain is not getting any easier and I know it will never get any easier. Today Petranda, me, Mom, Vicky and Elena just finished preparing your kolivo for tomorrow and we are all still in shock. Giorgo I wish you were still here with me. I don't want to sound selfish but I miss you very much and I love you very much. If it meant that if you lived you would suffer then I thank God that you are not here to suffer and you are resting now. God rest your soul my agapi and I know that someday we will be together again.
Love,
Nancy

Dear George,
I am sorry that it took me so long to write to you. I still cannot believe you left so quickly and totally unexpectedly. The doctors told us over and over again that it was going to be ' a piece of cake'. Surgery on Monday and you'll be home on the weekend. Well George you did go home, but not to Bannister Circle. God decided to take you home with him. Nancy, Father George, and I were waiting for the doctors to tell us it was okay to come and see you in the recovery room, but when the doctors came out we knew it wasn't okay. They didn't know why you passed, this was not suppose to happen! Nancy and everyone in the family are dealing with your passing one day at a time. We will have your three month memorial very soon. May you rest in peace and God give Nancy the strength to go on. We miss you very much George.
Your Sister-in-law,
Vicky

Giorgo mou,
Happy Birthday my agapi. I can't believe that instead of us celebrating your birthday today, that you are no longer with me. I know your spirit is here watching over me and are babies. Today instead we will be preparing your 40 day kolivo and we will be taking it to church tomorrow. It is hard to believe that 40 days has passed already. O Theos na anapfsi tin psihi sou. I miss you very much.
Love you forever,
Nancy

Giorgo mou,
Yesterday, January 8th was one month ago that you left me and my heart just stopped. I still can't believe it. I miss you very, very much and the house is so empty without you. You are in my thoughts every moment and when there is a decision I need to make I look up and ask you what should I do. The other day I was waiting for Cindy to pick me up from work and I forgot and thought you were picking me up and I called your cell phone and then I realized you weren't coming. Next Saturday, January 17th I will be doing your forty day kolivo and I can't believe that is the same day as your birthday. I had such big plans for you birthday. I want you to know that I love you very much and you will be in my heart forever. Our babies miss you very much also. Rest in peace my Agapi.
Love,
Nancy

When you passed away so suddenly, I was stunned. Mom and I attended the viewing and the funeral, saw family members who came from different parts of the country. A month has gone by, Mom and I went to the house, and then I think it finally hit me that you are gone. The house was unusually quiet, even with the three dogs barking. When I sat in the recliner, I looked over at the couch where you always sat and I could hear you talking about your plans for the future once you got over the surgery. It wasn't meant for you to be here, but your memory will live on. George, you are in a much better place. God brought you home. We are grateful that you did not suffer and that you left peacefully. May your memory be eternal and that God give Nancy the strength to get through this difficult time. We will always be here for her.

Theo George,
From the first time I met you, I knew you were different. Not different in a bad way, but truly a unique individual with the ability to say what was on your mind at any and all times. I still remember the very first time I met you like it was yesterday. You didn't give me the look of disapproval that I had gotten so many times going to meet or visit relatives with Coppy when we first started dating, rather you just looked me in the eye and smiled, shook my hand, burped the longest loudest burp I had ever heard, and called me "Shorty" (after that now famous "That's McDonald's" burp of course). Then we talked about sports for the next two hours. And I guess I can tell you now (sorry everyone else) that your souvlaki definitely was the best I've had. You used to give me my own pan to take home after Easter dinner...man I miss those!! Anyway, there are so many stories that bring up laughter and good memories through this time, and I swear I still hear Coppy and other family members recalling old funny things every day that you did when they were growing up. We miss you here and I know that Thea Nancy is hurting, but we all take comfort in knowing that you are at peace with God now, and don't have to suffer that terrible disease anymore. So dude, take care up there and keep 'em cracking up; and thanks for being you.

“Heeeyyy- no running!” and playing beauty salon with your hair while you watched sports may be some of the earliest memories I can recall as a little kid. Gosh Theo George this really came as a shock to all. I am very sorry I wasn’t able to come out and see you before you passed! At least the last phone conversation we had was a good one-you really sounded so strong and positive. You were one of a kind that’s for sure… I will never forget the BUUURRRP followed by “that’s mcdonalds man” introduction to Ryan 10 years ago.. he thought it was hysterical and you I believe had a soft sport for “shorty” thank you for never giving me a hard time about the “xeno” I chose to marry! You were a wealth of knowledge when it came to sports- any fact or statistic was engrained in your head.. a true fan. I know Nicolas will eventually appreciate the condom sentiment.. as you always brought him a pack starting from his 1st birthday… a little strange? Yes! But only you and that’s what made you –you! ? I am going to miss you asking me every time you saw me if there was a baby baking in there as you put your ear to my belly and your cooking. And damn you made a hell of a souvlaki!
Anyway—you will be missed. I know you are in heaven trying to convince my mom to drink “prune juice” with you… so I will pray for Thea Nancy to give her strength through this time and I know you are at peace now as no one should suffer through cancer and what it does to you.. I love you very much and I promise your microwave memorial will take place soon! Xoxox

Giorgo mou,
I want you to know that I love you and miss you very much. Thank you for the best 29 years of my life. I know we sometimes had our ups and downs but all couples do. We got mad at each other than 5 minutes later we apologized to each other. Life is going to be hard without you. I brought our babies home and they also are looking all over the house for you and miss you very much. What is hard is that this wasn't suppose to happen. I promise you I will find out what happened. I am so sad that I wasn't next to you when you passed away to tell you to please don't leave me and fight to stay alive and also to tell you how much I love you before you passed away. I guess this was how it was supposed to happen but it isn't fair. The one thing I am greatful for is you did not suffer. Rest in peace my Agapi and I know one day we will be together. Thank you for loving me so much as you so often told me. May God Rest your Soul. O Theos na se anapafsi.
I will love you forever and I will alway have the wonderful memories of our life together. Rest in peace.
Love your loving wife,
Nancy

Theo George and I go way back :) I remember vividly when he met Thea Nancy and they were dating and then got married. I remember, and have been reminded a lot by my mom and Theas, that I used to hide in the bedroom when Theo George would come over. I had issues with them dating, I mean Thea Nancy was the aunt who always babysat us, took us out to Lums, and bought us stuff. I wanted no part, at around 5 years old, of anyone taking her away from me/us...but he did...and it was okay. Theo George was one of a kind for sure. Father Mike said it best at the funeral when he said that he was a loving man, but one always knew where they stood with him. That isn't always a bad thing and Theo George was genuine and always true to himself. We had our ups and downs but the love was always there. I'm thankful that we reconciled and have a lot of memories to carry with me. There are too many stories my family has of Theo George that can just make you laugh for days. Thea Nancy...I hope you know that you have a huge family that is willing to do a lot to take care of you and make sure that you have all you need to go on. I really admire your strength and bravery in going back home to live. You're more independent than I might have given you credit for :) Love you a lot and whatever you need...just ask.
