In Loving Memory of Uncle Peter Rapos
On What Would Have Been His 93rd Birthday

Today, we pause to remember and celebrate the life of our beloved Uncle Peter Rapos, who would have turned 93 years old. Though he may no longer be with us in person, his spirit continues to live on in our hearts, in the stories we tell, and in the countless cherished memories he left behind.

Uncle Peter was more than just an uncle; he was a source of wisdom, humor, and unwavering love. Whether it was his kind smile that brightened the room, his stories that connected generations, or his quiet strength that provided comfort, he made each of us feel special and seen.

His life was a testament to perseverance, compassion, and joy. He taught us the value of hard work, the importance of arts in our lives, and the beauty of life’s simple moments. Whether it was sitting around the table sharing meals, watching him share his ballet knowledge, or hearing his laughter echo during a family gathering, Uncle Peter had a way of making every moment meaningful.

As we reflect on his 93rd birthday, let us honor him by carrying forward the lessons he taught us: to be kind, to cherish beauty, and to live with purpose and gratitude. Though we miss him deeply, his legacy continues in every act of kindness, in every shared laugh, and in the bonds that keep us together.

Uncle Peter, today we celebrate you with love, remembrance, and gratitude. Your presence may be missed, but your love and light remain eternal. We raise a glass to you, dear Uncle, and smile as we think of you watching over us, forever in our hearts.

With all our love and fondest memories,
Your Family
