Spiro was an avid fisherman who enjoyed the warm Gulf waters of Florida’s West Coast and the picturesque deep blue Ionian Sea. He truly enjoyed fishing with his cousins, boys and nephews, but most importantly, he cherished his annual visits to Kefalonia, every summer to visit with his late mother, brother and nephews.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests and deeply appreciates memorial contributions be made payable to Spiro’s brother, Peter Analitis, earmarked for Ayia Paraskevi Church located in Spiro’s place of birth in the Village of Atheras, Kefalonia, Greece. Spiro and his son, Dionysios, were baptized there and in addition, Spiro’s parents and son, Dionysios (Marieleni), were married there, so this church held deep meaning for him. All donations will go directly to this church.
