Peter S. Psaras, 59

Campbell…Funeral services will be held Monday, October 12, 2020, at Archangel Michael Greek Orthodox Church in Campbell, Ohio, at 11:00 a.m., with Fr. Steve Denas officiating, for Peter S. Psaras, 59, who passed away unexpectedly Tuesday, October 6, 2020, at his home.

Pete was born in Youngstown, Ohio on September 25, 1961. He was the youngest of four children, to parents Skevos Psaras and Nomiki (Loukakis) Psaras. The family immigrated to America from Kalymnos, Greece in 1960. Peter was the only child born in America and was raised in the city of Campbell.

He was a member of Archangel Michael Greek Orthodox Church.

He graduated from Campbell Memorial High School in 1980 where he fell in love with the sport of football. Pete loved the Detroit Lions football team and he passed on that love to his nephews who take pride in being Detroit Lions fans. 

Pete was a bridge painter by trade and worked for Corcon Industrial Painting Co. for 17 years of his life. He loved spending time with all his nephews, telling them awesome stories that they will cherish forever. We like to remember Pete with a smile on his face, dancing to MOTOWN tunes and making everybody laugh. He was the type of man that left a lasting impression on everyone he met.

Pete was preceded in death by his parents, Skevos & Nomiki Psaras; and his loving sister, Sylvia Mastronikolas of Campbell.

He leaves to cherish his memory his fiancé Barbara Hasapes of 15 years; his brother Tom S.(Irene) Psaras of Campbell, and his sister Mary Kiousis of Tarpon Springs, FL; his brother-in-law Nikolas Mastronikolas of Campbell; his three nieces Joanna Sarianopoulos of Campbell, Irene (Lee) Barlas, and Koula (Angelo) Kotzamanis of Tarpon Springs, FL; nephews Skevos T. Psaras, of Virginia, George T. (Lauren) Psaras, of Columbus, Peter (Cassie) Psaras, of Cleveland, Skevos N. (Amanda) Mastronikolas, John N. Mastronikolas and Alexi Psaras of Campbell; along with 17 great nieces and nephews, with one more on the way!  Pete made friends easily and loved them all, especially Michael and Louie Tsangaris, whom he considered brothers. 

The Psaras family has entrusted their loved one to the care of the Wasko Funeral home and will receive family and friends Monday, October 12, 2020, from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. with a service to follow officiated by Fr. Steve Denas at Archangel Michael Greek Orthodox Church in Campbell.
