Pantaleon Athanitis died early in the `morning on Wednesday, January 15 at the age of 93. He is survived by his wife of more than fifty years, Katina. He also leaves a son, Christos, his wife, Kristen, and three grandchildren, Loukas, Niko and Katerina.

Pantaleon was born in Desphina, Greece (near Delphi) in 1926. He survived WWII and the Greek Civil War of 1946-48.  He later immigrated to Brooklyn, NY in 1968. Here, he worked as a waiter across from Carnegie Hall. Together with Katina, he became a property owner of several buildings in Brooklyn, which they still own today. He was a strong man—in body and spirit—a devout Greek Orthodox who was very generous to his friends and family. He loved to make people laugh. He will be sorely missed.
