Live with Passion...

Live with passion....

Tonight I received a call from my Aunt Miriam to tell me that my Uncle Garby passed away earlier in the evening. Another battle against cancer has been lost, however his memory and his legacy of passion for life and love of his family has and will prevail. I feel lucky to have had him as a part of my life for as long as I have - and I will always cherish the memories of playing backgammon (tavlou) with him and the debates that he always seemed to want to start the moment I sat down in their living room.

Uncle Garby was a passionate person (as you can see by the photo above) - and this will live on. He will be missed dearly by myself and so many others.
