What did Bill teach you?

Hope Glastris
He taught me how to laugh, and how to fish in a pond using deli ham as bait.
Kukula Glastris
He taught me about the sheer joy of living which I do think of as uniquely Greek. Delight and joy are underappreciated in our life and being with Dad always lifted my heart. I wish I could be more like him.
Adam Glastris
As his grandson, I didn't get to spend nearly as much time as I would like to now, but I've had the benefit of watching old home videos and hearing stories about him. All I can say is that I don't think there's ever been a human being who's more fun and who has a bigger heart. He seems to just have a warm aura around him, and that's rare.
Chuck Fandos
Nouno taught me how to love with humor. He taught me how to make people feel like they were the most important person on earth because that's how he made you feel. He taught me to take risks and the road less traveled all while not taking yourself too seriously. We all miss him and his leather coats and his wit and giant heart. May his memory be eternal.
Richard Harris
William taught me how to trade something with no value for something else of no value and make a profit on both sides.
