Everyone loved Theo Tom! Tom, with his big "Jolly" and infectious smile always lit up the room. He was a longtime restaurateur and past owner of Jolly's Restaurant in Lombard where everyone and all were welcomed by his kind, loving, and sweet demeanor. Tom was well known in the Greek community and was very proud of his Greek heritage, culture, Greek Orthodox faith and traditions. He loved to Greek dance anytime there was an opportunity, especially at family weddings. It was truly a joy to see the happiness and pride he felt while dancing. He was an avid gardener and loved to grow his family's favorite vegetables, especially tomatoes and cucumbers for his favorite Greek salad. He loved sharing his love for gardening with his grandchildren when they were young. After his retirement he loved meeting with old and new friends for coffee to visit, share stories and laugh. He will be greatly missed. May his memory be eternal. All to meet on Thursday, December 21, 2023 at Holy Apostles Greek Orthodox Church, 2501 S.
