NEWS:

We are very saddened for the passing of our President Anthony Chokas on January 1, 2007.  Mr. Chokas reinvigorated our Silogo with his energy and enthusiasm.  His hard work and dedication led to a wonderful and successful New Year’ s Eve Dance, held at the Church of the Annunciation Elkins Park Hall.

Over 200 people attended this wonderful event.  Anthony was the heart and soul of this event.  Tragically he suddenly fell asleep in the Lord the next morning after having woken up and spoken to his friend about his joy from the success of the event.  We will all miss his larger than life personality, his sense of humor and generosity and his stories.  We will carry on the Silogo knowing this would make Anthony happy.

If you would like to make a contribution towards the Anthony Chokas Memorial Scholarship Fund, please send a check, made to the name of “Chios Society Koraes”
