Katerina Vayos also called Yiayia to many was born in Smyrni Minor Asia. When she was 2 yrs old the Turks took over and she and her family had to flee to Peristeri in Athens. Her and her 2 sisters Xrisa and Eleni had to live in tents where Eleni the middle sister got pneumonia and died at age 4. Katerina was baptized by St. Nectarios. When she got married to George Vayos she had 2 sons Julio and Thomas. Her husband worked on ships that went to America . After many tries he managed to stay in NY. Her husband brought their two sons to NY in 1963 and by 1965 she arrived.
During her life she was very devoted to God
she was a good wife a loving mother to her sons and her grandson George.
She was a religious model to many and was used by God many times by prayers and the sign of cross she healed evil eyes headaches and sickness of family and friends. One of her lasts works was to ask her grandson Tommy to have a son to carry the familys last name. She gave him an icon and asked him to pray to God
over it and to ask God for a son. Within 2 weeks Tommy and his wife conceived a baby boy. And that miracle helped Tommy to find God and get involved in the Greek Orthodox Church which in turn help Yiayia in her last years. He called Father John
to visit her in nursing home giving her Holy Communion and on 8/17/08 reading her the last rights in the hospital. She prayed a lot and for 2 3 hours at the time. When she was fasting she only allowed herself to drink water and eat bread. God gave her a lot of dreams and some of them were future events or warnings. One of them was 5 yrs ago telling her that she will die in 5 yrs which this came true this year.
We are all going to miss her and we love her very much.
