Gina, daughter of Markos and Helen Kalocerinos, married Felix ........, from Holland. Evangalia and her husband Con (Tzortzo)Poulos, were very good friends with Markos and Helen Kalocerinos. They have lived in Holland for a number of decades, but visit Kythera regularly. Mum had journeyed to Kythera for a number of months, and lived in the Tzorzopoulos patriko spitti in Karavas. Felix and family visited Envangalia there often.
All her relatives and friends will vouch for the fact that she was absolutely passionate about the game of domino's. She was the "Queen of the table" when domino's was being played in her home - the Tzortzopoulos patriko spitti - Karavas.

Kirrani was my grandfather's (my namesake) Trunduphilos's second wife. Kirrani worked extremely hard until she was almost 90, tending the many Koroneika properties in and around Karavas. Her one dream was that all the properties pass in tact to all the descendants ...

However, when he succumbed, and he was on the island, he always enjoyed himeself. The following is taken at the Tzortzopoulo patriko spitti, in Karavas. The house is tucked into the hillside, on the left, as you walk down from the steps leading up to Ayios Haralambos, towards Koronianika. Left to ...
