It has been 18 days since you left us John, and it’s so difficult to live in a world without you in it. Your presence was immense, but you were so humble. You were the life of the party, a gentle giant with the biggest heart; a heart of gold. You were a bright light in my life and in the lives of all those who truly knew you. Now that light has dimmed, and our world has gone dark. A piece of us died with you that day you left us. We are left with a giant void by your absence, but your legacy and the values you have instilled in your three beautiful children will live on forever. You were a champion, a fighter, even till your last breath, but God had a different plan for you. You are gone too soon from this life, but I know you are flying high in heaven, in the arms of God, where there is no pain, no suffering, no sorrow, no worries. There are no words to describe how much we miss you, and the unbearable pain we are in, but we know you are in a better place. I wish we can turn back the hands of time, so we can have one more moment with you; one last hug, a smile. More time to tell you how much you meant to me, and how much I loved you. If only every man could be the man you were- the husband, father, son, friend, brother- the world would be a better place. Rest In Peace big guy, until we meet again. We love you forever John! Gone, but never forgotten.
Our hearts are broken. We will forever remember the times we shared together . Our deepest and heartfelt condolences. Gone Too Soon. Rest in peace John. Love Nitsa Makriplis & George Koumbiadis
