One year ago, on October 28, 2018, we celebrated the extraordinary life of our father, Aris Anagnos.
Aris was the center of our family and he has left big shoes to fill. There is not a single day that goes by when we don’t think or speak about him. Aris always sought to help those less fortunate in different ways, both publicly and privately. His love for humanity was well known. One year following his death, we mourn his loss, but we also appreciate his wisdom, his guidance, and his love. He is deeply missed.
Aris entrusted our family to build a foundation that will reflect the vision he held for the future. My wife, Carol, and my sons, John and Aris, are working together to ensure that his work continues. We are dedicated to providing assistance for educational, scientific and humanitarian causes. This was his dream and it will be his legacy. We all shared and participated in the past he designed. We will follow his direction and expand on his work.
Now, it is time for a new journey. Our goal is to ensure the success of his vision for future generations by building a non-profit organization that is both self-sustainable and capable of growth.
Our family wants to take this opportunity again to thank all those who attended last year’s celebration of his life and those who participated in honoring his memory, especially the members of the Greek Community, whose support has been overwhelming! We take comfort in knowing that so many people cared for him. We deeply appreciate your assistance and your guidance as we move forward to honor our father’s memory and fulfill his commitment to make the world a better place for all of us.
You will be hearing in the near future about what The Aris Anagnos Foundation, a non-profit organization, is doing and about the community we are building.
