My sincerest condolences Angela, George, Hellen and family, a wonderful soul which i was blessed that i had met, A soul that earned his respect by respecting any age group, A soul which i had met in my early teenage years till today had him as a Mantor in my life, A soul which guided people, A soul that would solve problems, A soul that would help anyone, A soul that was always with a unique smile, A soul that would give the time to listen, A soul that will be deeply mist but never to be forgotten EONHA H MNHMH TOU KALO PARATHISO THIO XRISTARA, from SIFALIO MICHAEL DIACOPOULOS & FAMILY
George, Angela and Helen,
I feel very sad that I can’t be there to say goodbye to my “Theo Baba” but will join you through the live stream and thinking of you all. I have comforting thoughts of him being with Dad and picture them having a good old ‘kotsobolio’. Sending you all love and strength to get through this day. ❤️
Very sad I was unable to be with you George, Angela and Helen on this day. Uncle Chris has had a profoundly rich life full of experiences and adventures. We have so many stories in our memory banks. I am glad that he is now finally resting and spending time with his brothers. We will remember him. Much love from across the miles to all the family. ❤️

For my dear Uncle Chris
Very difficult to write about a person that I greatly admired for his achievements in life, his enterprising spirit, his optimism, his sense of humor and many other things. He was definitively what we call a man larger than life!
For me that I had lost my father – his older brother – when I was 17, Uncle Chris has always showed me his interest and attention, he always had time to show his concern, to guide me and give me his valuable advices, and to help me in any way he could. In short, I always felt that he was there for me with his sense of family devotion.
I know that these aspects of his character (to be ready to listen and to help others, both morally and materially) are well known and many people would attest to that, not only relatives and friends.
His annual customary summer return to fatherland Greece was an event that I was looking forward to it: it meant interesting and joyful moments with a very dear close relative, all the time until his return back to Australia. He will be deeply missed, but he will never be forgotten.
My deepest condolences to my cousins George, Angela and Helen and their families. May he Rest in Peace. He will always live in our memory. Όλοι μας θα τον θυμόμαστε με αγάπη!
