Our condolence to your beloved husband and father
My condolences to Jacob Musallam’s family and relatives. May he rest in peace.
Dear Godfather Jacob,
Starting to write these few words I came to realize that I could not remember myself ever calling you noné (Godfather in Greek) in person . I don’t know why. But I always remember looking up to, admiring you and enjoying every time I had the chance, the blessing, to meet you in one your trips to Cyprus. I remember myself waiting to hear your jokes and your “contagious” laughter that filled the space.
I am honored, blessed and privileged to be able to say that you were my godfather and I know my beloved noná Evie and your boys feel blessed for having you as a husband and father. I pray the almighty God will help them bear the pain of your loss and cherish your memories together.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you our dearest Evie, Joseph, Alex and Mark.
With all our love,
Christos & Anastasia Taliadoros
