Jim and Mary Farmakoulas were the first neighbors we met when we got married in 1964. We both lived on Peter Street and we became friends. They are wonderful people and I wish to offer condolences to the Farmakoulas family. Jim and Annette Witherington

I have a faint memory as a child going into Mr. Farmakoulas' shop and getting an extra look punched through my belt as it was too big for me. He was a very kind man and very good to his customers. My wife Chloe and I wanted to express our condolences to his wife and daughter Christina who I've known for many years as a good friend of my mother Veronica.

I knew Mr. Farmakoulas through his daughter, Christina. I have one amazing memory of bringing in a purse, which was shaped like a high-heeled shoe, to Mr. Farmakoulas' shop. The heel had broken off my purse and he took this slightly unusual repair in stride--always friendly and helpful. Sending Mrs. Farmakoulas, Christina, and the whole family hugs and all my best.

My condolences. He was one of the first Greek Canadians I met when I came to Saint John in August 1966. Will miss a lot of things about him. Most of all the conversations we used to have in the church basement after the service.

Condolences Farmakoulas family,
An Orthodox Prayer for the Departed,
O God of spirits and of all flesh, Who hast trampled down death and overthrown the Devil, and given life to Thy world, do Thou, the same Lord, give rest to the souls of Thy departed servants in a place of brightness, a place of refreshment, a place of repose, where all sickness, sighing, and sorrow have fled away. Pardon every transgression which they have committed, whether by word or deed or thought. For Thou art a good God and lovest mankind; because there is no man who lives yet does not sin, for Thou only art without sin, Thy righteousness is to all eternity, and Thy word is truth.
For Thou are the Resurrection, the Life, and the Repose of Thy servants who have fallen asleep, O Christ our God, and unto Thee we ascribe glory, together with Thy Father, who is from everlasting, and Thine all-holy, good, and life-creating Spirit, now and ever unto ages of ages. Amen.
