Gregory Katsis Obituary
01/24/2025
Greg Katsis, 66, passed away Friday, January 24, 2025 after a sudden illness surrounded by family. Greg was the son of the late Nicholas Katsis and Olga Karpuk Katsis. He was married to Carol Katsis of Stratford for 43 years. They leave two children: Brian and his wife Kerrie, and Keith and his wife Lindsay. They also leave 3 grandchildren: Gavin, Quinn, and Logan. He is survived by his sisters, Debbie Moore of SC and Cindy Brown of NY.
A graduate of Stratford High School, Greg opened "Greg's NY Style Deli" when he was 18 years old in Stratford and loved making food for people. His entire working career was in some way or another involved in the food industry. Working for Sodexo, big y, and most recently Adams supermarket in Portland. Greg and Carol moved to North Carolina for a while and enjoyed life on the beach until grandchildren became a thing and they decided to move back to CT.
Greg loved being out in the sun, trips to the casino, and joking with his family and friends. He was very proud of his Greek heritage, and his Greek Christmas cookies will be missed by all who were lucky enough to have them.

Greg who was also known as "dad" to me at work, was one of the kindest people I have ever met. He was always there for a good laugh, and if he knew you were having a rough day you could count on him to make you smile. I loved hearing his stories about his life and his accomplishments. He is missed so much. Sending many warm thoughts to his family.
