The Granddaughter's Wedding-2...
Papa-Charalambos, a retired Orthodox priest (papas, in greek) was diagnosed to have few months before he leaves the earthly matters and join his Master for an eternal life. He admitted he is ready and prepared to meet Him, but before that he was happy and delighted to wed his 3rd granddaughter in the village church, where he served in modesty for more than 30 years. He, with his devoted wife, danced first in the line with the bride, a charming nurse and a dear niece of mine.
