Obituary for Sam T. Gardeakos
Gardeakos, Sam T. Age 72 U.S. Army Veteran
Devoted husband of 49 years of Coleen Gardeakos (nee Thompson).
Loving father of Brian (Tania), Julie (Seth) Kagy, and Nick (Bridgett).
Proud grandfather of Madison, Dominick, Jimmy, Skylar, Niko, Annalise, Greyson, Deagan, Jake, and Faith.
Cherished son of Thomas and Georgia Gardeakos (nee Kokotas).
Dear brother of Helen (Phil) Noplos and Cynthia (Bill) Stoecker.
Amazing brother-in-law of Peter (Becky) Thompson, Sally (Al) Tomnitz, Tim (Deb) Thompson, and Joe (Barb) Thompson.
Unbelievable uncle of many nieces and nephews.
The best cousin and nephew ever.
Die hard Cubs fan. Generally, up to no good. Jack-of-all-trades, master-of-none. The king of the best bad ideas, that were the most fun.
His smile and smiling eyes will be missed by many. He was an amazingly good guy.
