Elefthereus Yannis Paraskevas, 84, passed away on January 4, 2020 in Mobile, Alabama. He was born in Tinos, Greece in 1935, and settled in Mobile in the early 1980’s after spending many years as a Seaman in the Mobile Port. After he left the waters, Terry became self-employed as a house painter – painting many homes in the Downtown Mobile Area. He and his wife Margie loved spending time together. They both enjoyed gardening, but Terry was the one with the green thumb. He was an excellent cook. Terry was a lover of animals, and they loved him. He was a kind and good man, and will be greatly missed.
Terry is survived by his wife of over 30 years, Margie Weaver Paraskevas; step-daughter, Melissa; as well as sons, sisters, brothers, aunts, uncles, and cousins in his native home of Greece.
