Shocked to hear of my long time friend's demise! We lived in Pittsfield and Palo Alto and were best of friends & belonged to the Choir & Philoptochos Society. Her son, John and my son were both born in Pittsfield, MA I was also at Peter's wedding & Jim Stapakis, my nephew was his Best Man. I had also met "Tig's" Mom, Dad and Sister. Heartfelt condolences & may her soul rest in Peace. "Eonia E Mnimi Tis".
