Anitsa lived across the road from us when I stayed at our family home in Mitata, and was invariably watering her wonderful garden when I passed. Generous to a fault, her smiling face made every cloud disappear.

Ioannis Prineas (Rivithi). A picture of a lovely man, who left behind a wonderful family which do him credit.
Ireni (pictured here) and her sister Maria were wonderful women.

Here she is, walking majestically back along the cemetry road towards Mitata.
