Obituary of Pericles (Peter) Dionissiou

DIONISSIOU, PERICLES (PETER) - passed away peacefully in Regina, June 14, 2006 at the age of 80 years. Peter is survived by his wife, Angeliki (Angie), his beloved wife of 55 years. Peter was predeceased by his parents George and Magdelini; and his brother George. Although Peter and Angie had no children of their own, they cherish over twenty nephews and nieces that love Angie and Peter as their parents, and through them they have found great joy and reward. Born on October 20, 1925 in Kaltezes, Greece where he met and married his wife Angie before immigrating to Canada in 1955, Peter began his restaurant career spanning over 40 years, a career marked not only by his genuine love of great food, but also his desire to share it with everyone. Peter and Angie established and operated with partners, Julianna Pizza and the Mediterranean Dining Room in Regina, where they had the opportunity to convert many customers into good friends. Peter was a proud member of the Regina Greek Community throughout the years, and he maintained a strong presence well into his active retirement. Peter was a hunter and a passionate outdoorsman. If he wasnt off hunting deer or fowl, most likely you would find him on an early morning walk, or in his yard grafting apple trees or tending to his successful vegetable garden. He also enjoyed shopping local grocery stores, and often the farmers markets for the freshest produce. Not to be missed was a visit with friends for coffee, good company, and to lend his opinion to the discussion of the day. Suppertime would usually find Peter with Angie, at Demetra Pappas house, sharing a meal with family. Peter was a generous man and countless times has helped family, friends, and has made significant contributions to charitable causes. Pericles is dearly loved and will be greatly missed by us all. Prayers will be held Sunday, June 18, 2006 at 8:00 p.m. in Saint Pauls Greek Orthodox Church, 3000 Argyle Road. Funeral Service will be held Monday, June 19 at 3:00 p.m. in Saint Pauls Greek Orthodox Church, with Rev. Fr. Spyridon Vandoros officiating. Interment in Regina Cemetery.
