Pete "Panagiotis" Mezines
Peacefully on October 8, 2018. Loving husband of 60 years to Lula Mezines; father of George Mezines (Andrea), William Mezines (Marianna) and Tom Mezines; beloved Papou of Cassandra and Vanessa Mezines; loving brother of Bessie ("Vasiliki") Dubis, Sam Mezines (Maureen) and Chris Mezines (Mary); dear uncle, cousin and friend to many.
Pete, a Greek immigrant, arrived in the United States at the age of 17 to pursue the American dream. He served his country in the U.S. Army, worked as a watch repairman and created a thriving, successful barber business. After 42 years as a barber, he hung up his clippers and spent time tending his garden and vegetables. As the patriarch of the family, Pete's guidance and wisdom will truly be missed, but he forever will be in our hearts.
