CAMPBELL… Konstantinos “Gus” Patris passed peacefully at his home on Saturday Aug 16.

Gus was born in Kalymnos Greece April 11, 1940 and was a son of the late Vasilios and Christofelena (Pizani) Patris. He grew up with 2 Sisters and 3 brothers.

Gus learned the trade of being a tailor at an early age in Greece. He also served in the Greek Military is his younger years.

He moved to Australia 1966-1969 and lived with his sister the late Maria Mangos and family.

He moved to the United States in 1969 to live with his brother the late Stelios B. Patris and met the love of his life Rose Maron. They married on Dec 27, 1969 at St. John’s Orthodox Church and were married 44 years until her passing in 2013.

His love for Rose was so pure that he never once ever forgot her memory and it was a special bond between two people to this day that was a remarkable story.

He worked in Strouss in Downtown Sharon as a tailor and later worked at the Garment Center in Boardman and Niles.

He accomplished his dream by opening his tailor shop in Girard and he helped many customers, friends and family with alterations over the years and even in retirement.

He enjoyed camping for many years at Flying Finn Campground and loved to spend time just talking to friends and family by the campfire.
