A Eulogy from Frank Kalafatic,

On December 3, 2019, John Paul Theodorakakis passed away at the age of 47 after battling the injuries he sustained from being tragically struck by a car on November 27, 2019. 

We honor John for who he was and who he has been to us all.

He was a man of ideals. He would occasionally say that his beliefs were ranked in the following order: God, country, and family. We all know that he possessed undeniable charisma and best of all, he was especially honest.

A father to two great sons PJ and AJ, a loving husband to Ariti, a caring son to his parents, a protective brother to Chrissy, a proud uncle, and an incredible friend and brother to us all.



True to his generous nature, John would freely give what he could at all times. You were truly fortunate to have him on your side because he would give you the shirt off his back without any hesitation.

He embraced life's challenges and he felt that doing the hardest things were ultimately the right things to do.


He was very opinionated, as we all appreciated and he let you know what was on his mind. John's voice was one of passion at all times.

He also had a gentle side and he could be very gracious.

According to his indomitable spirit, he held on for his life until his final day, showing us all his strong willpower. He really did hear our prayers when we encouraged him.

He leaves us all with incredible memories and all of our lives have been touched irrevocably. We honor a great man who did everything he could with the gifts that God had given him.

May God favor his handsome boys PJ and AJ, the apples of his eye. John had confided in me that his boys were the renewable strength in his life. He had said that he was raising them to be strong and smart.

It is very hard to say goodbye to him, a part of our family, our friend, our brother, our special guy. We will always love him.


Let us hold him in the highest regard and always remember the great times and remember the trying times especially when he prevailed with his head high.

John is under God's protective hand and he is in the company of angels now. He is in peace beside God's mighty throne. He knows we were there for him giving him a loving farewell and wishing that he has peace on his longer journey. May he be welcomed with open arms.

LORD, thank you for the precious time we have spent with John. Embrace him and guide his family with grace, dignity and compassion. We will remember and miss you forevermore John.

In honor of our brother, John Paul, we are raising funds for his sons, AJ and PJ.  While we cannot replace their father's undeniable love for them, his care, his attention, his friendship, we can hope to help them see how much their father was loved by so many.
