Remembering The Life Of Paraskevy Efthymiades

With a broken heart we farewell our beloved mother, grandmother, aunty and friend – Paraskevy Efthymiades (née Kanellis), wife of the late Savvas Sotiriou Efthymiades. A woman of incredible strength and kindness, with a spirited sense of adventure, a razor-sharp wit, never-ending love and care for all. She will be eternally missed. Born in Paradisi, Vion Laconia in 1934, Paraskevy passed away at home on the evening of Monday 9 February, aged 91. Her family extends its gratitude and thanks to all of you who have shared their fond memories and offered their condolences and support at this most difficult time.
