The Greek community of Australia has suffered a loss with the news that John Poulios passed away last week.
A well-known member of the Greek community, he was the former state president of AHEPA, a 3XY broadcaster and was also involved in the advertising department of Neos Kosmos.
Mr Poulios contributed enormously to AHEPA as well as to many other community organizations in Victoria with his unfaultered dedication to Hellenism, the FYROM name issue and the Hellenic language and culture through his long term service in the Greek media and community service.
His passing has upset the community as a whole, even though his health has deteriorated for some time.
Mr Poulios will be remembered by his wife, children, relatives and friends.
