Dr. Christos N. Kapogiannis

Dr. Christos N. Kapogiannis, 54, of Westport, MA passed away Wednesday, March 29, 2023 in his residence with his family by his side. He was the beloved husband of Amy (Rousseau) Kapogiannis with whom he would have shared 20 years of marriage this June.

Born in Poughkeepsie, NY, he was the son of the late Nick Kapogiannis and Georgia (Koliopoulos) Kapogiannis of NY.

Dr. Kapogiannis was a physician for Southcoast Hospitals Group. He was Board certified in Internal Medicine, Critical Care, Pulmonary Disease, and Sleep Medicine.

Dr. Kapogiannis will be remembered by his patients for his genuine, warm bedside manner. By his family and friends, Christos will be remembered for the heart of gold beyond his stoic (and quite sarcastic!) exterior. Having learned hard work and selflessness from his father, he always put his loved ones first, never complaining or asking for anything in return. At the evening dinner table, he would routinely call upon the Alexa to play a niche 80s song for his family and engage in lively political debates with his daughter. Chris was a big sports fan. Before his passing, he was overjoyed at the legalization of sports betting in Massachusetts. His favorite teams were the New York Mets and the Boston University Hockey team.

In addition to his wife and mother, he is survived by two daughters, Olivia and Sofia Kapogiannis, sister Argie Kapogiannis, sister Eleni and brother-in-law Jeff Baxter, three nieces, and numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins.

His funeral service will be Tuesday, April 4, 2023 at 10 a.m. in St. George Greek Orthodox Church, 186 Cross Rd., Dartmouth. Burial will follow in Beech Grove Cemetery, Main Rd., Westport. Visitation will be Monday 4-7 p.m. in the WARING-SULLIVAN HOME at DARTMOUTH, 230 Russells Mills Rd., Dartmouth. In lieu of flowers, donations in his memory may be made to The Glioblastoma Foundation, PO Box 62066, Durham, NC 27715. www.glioblastomafoundation.org.
