He put Pericles to shame in his Greek pride.

"Professional Greek": A brochure Bill had designed for his company (that's him with the glasses and chisel, in case it wasn't obvious).

He may have mentioned it once or twice.

All I needed was one clip of one home video to be absolutely sure that Papou was a Greek's Greek. If you know what I mean.

Not only did he mention it, his Greek heritage was inseperable from who he was. He was also the Don Rickles of our neighborhood, with a near constant stream of remarks about how the Greeks, being the founders of all art, learning and civilization, were superior to all others. Of course he was gentler than Don Rickles - his foils were twelve year old kids after all. But looking back on it and him, and I do with surprising regularity, I've come to realize that he was the master of the right-handed insult, the perfect opposite of the left-handed complement. He made fun of that which you were rightly proud of and he did it a way that made you realize that he was acknowledging that the source of your pride was justfied. It was a special skill and he was a special man.

Oh my God. He broke the scale when it comes to his pride in his heritage! It really was like My Big Fat Greek Wedding.
Richard Harris
He was so proud of his heritage, he made me wish
I were Greek as well.
NIKOLAOS NIKOPOULOS
CEO was very proud of his heritage. So is 10.

On a scale of 1-10, 100.

At Kukula & Paul's wedding he was toasting him being a descendant of Alexander the Great.
