Our beloved wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother went to be with the Lord on September 9, 2021 after a long and terrible battle with Dementia/Alzheimers. Fotini was born on February 4, 1932 to Petro and Kostanto Tagaris in Hlomo Vorio Eipeiro Greece. Beloved wife of Pantelis Bezanis for over 70 years. Dear sister of Athena (Gregory) of Greece. Loving and cherished mother Stavro (Xristina), Kostantina (Konstantinos), Marina. Yia Yia to George (Hariklia), Fotini (John), Vangeli (Rashelle), Pantelis (Eleana), Mixali (Kostantina), Petro. Great grandmother to Kostantina, Georgia, Harilaos, Konstantinos, Gabriel, Leonidas, Alexandros, Katerina, Melita, Christina.
She will be missed by many relatives and friends.
Fotini was a very kind-hearted, gentle, humble, God-fearing and family oriented woman. Quiet by nature, she never had an ill word to say about anyone and gave unconditional love and support to anyone who knew her. Some people would say she lived a simple life but she lived her life with what she loved most, family and faith. She was raise along with her older sister Athena with strong Christian values and work ethic while working with her family.
Fotini married Pantelis Bezanis and moved to Athens, Greece and then moved to New York where she was a homemaker and raised three children Stavro, Kostantina, Marina while being the most caring, loving and involved mom and wife she could be. Fotini also loved cooking, baking, gardening, sewing and socializing.
Fontini was adored and loved by all who knew her. Although we are very saddened to lose such a sweet soul, who we will deeply miss and forever remember, we find comfort knowing our beloved mother is finally at rest and rejoicing in heaven.
