Agios Rafael Funeral Services- Saint Rafael Funeral Cyprus

It’s hard to lose anyone, but it’s especially hard to lose a parent.
Unfortunately my DAD passed away today.

He was such an amazing man and he meant so much to us.
I know that losing my Dad is one of the hardest things I’ve ever have to go through, but I also know that I’m not alone. I know that there are other people out there who have lost loved ones and they know how I feel. I know that I can always talk to them about my dad and how much I miss him.

He was the best Dad I could have ever asked for and I know that I was lucky to have him in our life. And not only me. We are four brothers...

My parents were very giving, and taught us at a young age to put our life in perspective to the greater picture, and to help others whenever we can.

Even though he’s gone, I know he’s still with us in spirit and I know that I will see him again in eternity.
He has been ill for a while.
But he died peacefully, and we were able to spend time with him in his final days.

A loving father, a guiding light, forever in our hearts. Rest in peace.

The funeral will take place at Angeloktisti Church, Kiti, Fryday August 30, 2024 at 3pm.

Με βαθιά θλίψη η Αστυνομία αποχαιρετά σήμερα τον Αστυφύλακα Πέτρο Ελευθερίου.

Ένα αξιόλογο και έμπειρο αστυνομικό που ξεχώριζε για το ήθος, την ευγένεια και την ανθρωπιά του. Ένα εκλεκτό συνάδελφο, που στην προσπάθειά του να προστατεύσει ένα συνάνθρωπό μας, έχασε τη ζωή του το βράδυ της περασμένης Παρασκευής.

Η αστυνομική οικογένεια θα βρίσκεται σύσσωμη στην Ορόκλινη, για να αποχαιρετίσει τον Αστυφύλακα Πέτρο Ελευθερίου, με τις τιμές που του αξίζουν. Η κηδεία θα τελεστεί σήμερα στις 15:00 στον Ι.Ν. Αρχαγγέλου Μιχαήλ στην Ορόκλινη και τα έξοδα έχει αναλάβει το Ταμείο Ευημερίας της Αστυνομίας.
Η Αστυνομία έχει κηρύξει τριήμερο πένθος με τις σημαίες της να είναι μεσίστιες.

Ο Αρχηγός Αστυνομίας, σε συνεννόηση με την Υπουργό Δικαιοσύνης και Δημόσιας Τάξης από την πρώτη στιγμή άρχισαν τις διαδικασίες για την επ’ ανδραγαθία προαγωγή του Αστυφύλακα Πέτρου Ελευθερίου, στον βαθμό του Λοχία. Η στήριξη της συζύγου και των ανήλικων τέκνων του, ηθικά και υλικά, είναι δεδομένη.

We are blessed to live in a country which allows for religious freedom. And, when you work as a funeral director helping those who have lost loved ones to death, it’s a privilege to help even when those client families don’t believe as you do.
However, have you ever thought about those that don’t have your faith and wondered what are they looking forward to? In my Christian faith I’ve learned that death is not the end… it is the beginning of a new and glorious life to come.

As funeral directors we live our lives intermingled with those who are grieving. If Easter, which signifies the resurrection of Jesus Christ, is the most important day of the Christian calendar, then Christmas, the day of Christ’s birth is the close second.
So, to those of you on call and working Easter Sunday.
I know it is a bummer that you cannot spend the whole day with your family. However, know that what you are doing today on those calls is being the hands of Christ in your community.
Consider yourself lucky that you have the privilege to care for those in need… what could be more fulfilling.

Christ is Risen ! Have a Happy Easter!
