Harry P. Diamandis

Harry P. Diamandis, M.D. ,89, of Boca Raton, Florida passed away peacefully in the arms of his eternally loving wife Tula on Wednesday June 22, 2016.

   Dr. Harry Diamandis was described by all as a “great man”. He was a dedicated doctor, devoted husband, loving father and grandfather.  He was our mentor, an inspiration, a ballast of society.

   Harry came from humble beginnings, born on January 12, 1927 in the village of Mystegna, in Mytilene Greece, graduated from Athens Medical School and then after meeting the love of his life, Tula in 1955, he immigrated to the U.S. to join her and started his training as an Obstetrician/Gynecologist in New York.  He had a distinguished career as a Board Certified Ob/Gyn physician and mentor to residents at Booth Memorial Hospital. He touched thousands of families by bringing life into this world but also served as a trusted advisor and caring confidante to the many women that he treated.

   Harry was a past president of the Panlesvian Society of America, and active member of the Hellenic Medical Society of New York, The American College of Obstetrician and Gynecologist, the New York State Society of Surgeons, and the American Medical Association. He was a distinguished patron of the Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church of New Rochelle, a Founding Father of the Archangel Michael Greek Orthodox Church of Roslyn Heights and a faithful member of St. Mark’s Greek Orthodox Church of Boca Raton since 1999 and a lifetime member of the order of AHEPA in New York and Florida.

   To his family and friends he was a bold, strong, proud, but humble man having an innate moral compass and a passion for helping others. He loved listening to music, dancing, and relaxing by the beach in the beaming sunlight. To his beautiful wife he was an exceptional partner in life, in tennis matches, and late night barimba games.

   His legacy lives on through his eternally devoted wife Tula, his two children Peter and Marcelle and his beautiful grandchildren Katerina, Alexia, Christina, Daxton Harry and Jet James.

  A memorial service and celebration of Dr. Harry P. Diamandis’ life will take place on Monday June 27, 2016 at 10:00 am at St. Mark’s Greek Orthodox Church and entombment following at The Gardens Memorial Park.

In lieu of flowers the family has requested donations be made to St. Mark Greek Orthodox Church, 2100  NW 51st St., Boca Raton, FL  33431.  (561)994-4822  www.saintmarkboca.net
