Memory eternal George Haralambos Pelekanos (March 4, 1964-April 15, 2024)
George was born in Pireus, Greece, the second child of Haralambos and Fani Pelekanos. When George and his sister, Alexandra, were still young, Haralambos and Fani moved their family to St. Louis, Missouri, and raised their children there. He was Regional Vice President of Aetna Insurance for many years, but he also loved his family very much. In addition to spending time with his beloved family, George was an excellent cook and fisherman, and enjoyed cars and motorcycles. George is preceded by his loving parents, Haralambos and Fani Pelekanos. He is survived by his two sons, Jeffrey and Matthew, their spouses, Kathryn and Paige, his grandchildren, Kain, Waylon, and Dylan, as well as his fiancée, Terri Fitzgerald, his sister, Alexandra, her husband, Roger, and her children. His generosity will always be remembered. May his memory be eternal.
