George H. Kapetanakis

George H. Kapetanakis, age 64, a resident of Tewksbury, passed away at Mass General Hospital on Thursday, January 4, 2024 surrounded by his loving family. He was the beloved husband of Dimitra (Mereves) Kapetanakis with whom he shared 24 years of marriage.

He was born in Veroia, Greece on May 20, 1959 and was the son of Charalampos and Panagiota (Magalios) Kapetanakis.

George came to USA in 1981 to pursue his studies and received a Bachelors Degree in Business. He followed a career in Sales and then proceeded to be a successful entrepreneur running several businesses in the restaurant and food service industry.

Georges kind, warm, caring and tranquil personality was a catalyst to entertaining and spending time with his family and friends, which he loved to do. He also enjoyed several activities such as walking, biking, kayaking, and being outdoors marveling nature. But most of all he cherished sharing time with his adorable twin children and his beloved wife.
