Individual Details

Andreas Grigorios Kostakos

(15 Mar 1892 - 18 Nov 1981)

Came to America. Owned his own restaurant in Brooklyn. After retirement he went back to Greece and lived there until his death. Was a tall, slim, quiet man who never married. I called him "Uncle Andrew." (From Andrew John Kostakos' recollection, 1994 ).

Ref. Kostakos-2: Andrew lived in New York all of his working life and retired as a bachelor back to Greece where he died in 1981.

Birth and death years from Georgios Kostakos (Ref. Kostakos-1).

Andrew was the godfather of Georgios Grigorios Kostakos and lived with Georgios' family for over 20 years. He was a generous man who helped his sisters financially. He also helped pay for Georgios' post-graduate work in England. (Per Georgios Kostakos discussion with Carol Petranek, August 2003).
