Nicholas (Nick) Calliagas passed away peacefully on August 23, 2024 at the age of 58.
He was born in 1965 in Wilmington, Delaware to his late father Costa Calliagas and his loving mother Jeanie Klezaras.
Nick always had an act for entrepreneurship, working at family run restaurants since the age of 8. When he wasn’t at the restaurant he would be found painting bridges with his father, saving every penny they earned to start their own food truck business in 1984 in Philadelphia. In his later years he worked as a Comcast technician serving the greater Philadelphia region.
Family was the most important thing to Nick. Always lending a helping hand to family and friends and making them feel appreciated and heard no matter how big or small. Nick had the gift of living life to the fullest spreading positivity and cheer to anyone around him. He had made sure you were family. He took great pride in his Greek heritage and his faith as a devoted member of Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church.
He was preceded in death by his father Costa Calliagas and step mother Amalia Calliagas. He is survived by his loving wife Kathy of 31 years and his 3 children Dino(Amanda), Markella, and Mihali(Jordan), grandchild Nikolas, Mother Jeanie Klezaras, sister DiAnna Jenkins(Andrick), brother in laws Nick and George Atsidis, his nieces and nephews, and many cousins.
