Georgia Lambrinou

Georgia Lambrinou, 70, of Nikiti, Halkidiki, Greece, passed away on November 12,2023.

Georgia was the daughter of the late Asterios and Dialeta Stamatikos. She was united in marriage to Mavrothese Lambrinos at the Greek Orthodox Church in Nikiti. Mavrothese died at the age of 49, after a long battle with alcohol abuse.

Georgia is survived by her two daughters, Stella and Christina; a sister Olga; and a brother, Dimitrios. Survivors in the United States include her nephews, Asterios (Laurel) from Carbondale, Illinois and Alexis (Katrina) from Anderson, South Carolina; a sister-in-law Debra (Richard) Hertenstein of Carthage, Illinois.

She was preceded in death by her husband, a brother, John and sister Artemis.

Following her husband’s death, she assumed the sole responsibility of caring for her aged in-laws, her two young daughters, her father-in-law’s farms as well as the business and the farms of her deceased husband. Georgia accomplished all of this with aplomb. Through all of this, she continued to be a devoted grandmother to her three grandchildren. She had the mind of an Einstein and the cooking and housekeeping abilities of Martha Stewart. Georgia was always singing or humming as she went about her daily tasks. She loved to sing and aspired to become a professional singer. Her father didn’t agree with her aspirations and instead he arranged for her to become married to Mavrothese.

Per orthodox tradition, she was buried on November 13, 2023.

She will be greatly missed, but we are grateful for her 70 years on this earth.

Memorials can be made in Georgia’s name to Immanuel Lutheran Church general fund for support of the kitchen activities.
