Demetrios Panagiotou Kanellakos

We are deeply sorry for your loss ~ Gunderson Funeral Home - Madison

Uncle Takis was such a special person, always sharing his smile and wisdom with others. Every time he visited us in Greece he would brighten our day with his amazing stories and jokes. May we all carry a piece of his positivity and kindness in our hearts! Our deepest condolences to his close family and friends during these difficult times. Να ζήσετε να τον θυμάστε - may his memory live on with you! Much love, Karolos, Christina and Panos

Seeing Pappou at Leda's house always lifted my spirits - he had so much joy inside that he shared with everyone. I pray for comfort and peace for all who are missing him and grieving. Love, Amy Curl

Γράφω και σβήνω και δεν ξέρω πως να πω αντίο! Ο θείος Τάκης ήταν πάντα μια πηγή θετικής ενέργειας και έμπνευσης, και για μένα έτσι θα παραμείνει! Η σκέψη μου συνοδεύεται από τα πιο γλυκά συναισθήματα και νιώθω τυχερή για ο,τι μοιράστηκα μαζί του . I feel blessed to have shared so many beautiful moments with Uncle Takis. I say goodbye with gratitude, knowing that love never truly disappears.

When I was a kid , my cousin Takis' arrival announcement was enough to bring smiles and joy to our house. His presence was luminous, relaxed, happy. IAlso there where good conversations and a lot of singing. Dancing, sometimes, as well. He had his ears open to anything that I needed to share, and a special gift to put my feelings in order. He was lawful to his believings and ideas. He wanted to share whatever nice and positive he had experienced. Like transcendental meditation. He was loving and caring and giving, always smiling. My children and later my grandchildren adored him and felt confident with him. He loved Greek countryside (or maybe countryside everywhere) and we had some precious times together at Epidaurous, Sparta, and Lefkada last September. We are all grateful for last September. Love stays for ever in my heart and good memories in my mind. I miss him so much! My condolences to my nieces and nephews. Να είστε καλά, να τον θυμόσαστε.
