Theodore Souris and his wife Kanella Souris.

Gravestone of Theodore Souris and his wife Kanella Souris, in the Gunnedah cemetery.

Theodore (Theo) was born on the 10th April, 1918, and died on 30th August, 1980.

Kanella was born on the 12th March, 1914, and died on 24th December, 2003.

From the symbolism on the gravestone, Theo was obviously a proud Mason.
