He lived life on his terms and to the fullest, garnering many titles that will endure: father, son, brother, and husband; doctor, mentor, comedian, and friend. He was privileged with the opportunity to study in Italy unaware of the full, exciting and impactful life he would lead. Giovanni was a beloved member of every one of his classes and graduated from the University of Bologna as a Doctor of Pharmacology. Giovanni was a glowing soul and mind and spread his love for education, literature, history, and science to eager ears. He always had a smile on his face and a good story to tell.
Giovanni loved fishing, good food, music, architecture, and all things beautiful. Above all he loved his family, and they loved him. He is survived by his beloved wife Karin and his daughter Sophia, his father Nick and mother Stamata, his sisters Helen and Maria Assunta, his brother-in-laws Claudio and Mike, and his nieces and nephews: Alexandrea, Anastasia, Stefania, Angelo, Megan and Jesse. Heaven has gained another angel. Rest in peace our beloved Johnny Boy.
