Eugenia was born in Eva, Kalamata, Greece, where she grew up under Nazi occupation during WWII.  As a young girl in Greece, she was tasked with raising her younger sibling under the poverty and depression of the war and struggled to survive.  Those hardships during her youth helped forge a neverending tenacity and love of family that would stay with her for all of her life.

She left Greece for the United States in 1955 with her sister Julia and began work as a seamstress.  She traveled back a few years later where she would meet her devoted and loving husband, Anthony.  They married in 1961 and returned to the states where they would start their family, which would be the focus of the rest of their lives.

Eventually, Eugenia and Anthony saved enough money to start a small market in Cambridge with her brother Vasili.  Later they opened Anthony's Greek Market in Central Square, which became a mainstay of the local Greek and American community for decades until they sold it in 1981.  However, their retirement did not last long.  In 1985 they opened a new market with their three sons called A&A Convenience Store on Mass. Ave in Arlington.  The family business was sold in 2005, several years after Eugenia and Anthony finally retired to devote their time to family, friends and their garden where they spent most of their time in Florida or Cape Cod.

Eugenia now joins her deceased husband and siblings that rest in peace.

Her funeral and burial will be held in private and a memorial service will be held at a later date.  In lieu of flowers, donations in her memory may be made to Caring for a Cure , Ovarian Cancer Research Alliance or the National Ovarian Cancer Association.
