Together with her husband, they made a career feeding and caring for others in the food business, eventually establishing John’s Coney Island and Fox Fire Lounge in west Flint, from where they retired in 1994. Voula was generous, intelligent, caring and funny. She was a member of the Assumption Greek Orthodox Church since 1961. She loved to cook and share her cooking with others. She nurtured many friends and employees. She had a talent for growing flowers and vegetables, knitting and crocheting. She spent her retirement years caring for and enjoying her garden, her home, her family and friends.
