RIP Litsa “Julia” Constantellis – Bay Ridge
Many people know Mrs. Constantellis as the iconic mother of comedian, Gus Constantellis.
For years, Gus has shared his Mother with the world through his “Greek Mom” bits on TikTok and Youtube, as well as his at comedy clubs.
Last week, while vacationing in Greece with family, Gus’ Mom had a brain aneurysm, which caused a stroke and she did not recover. Yesterday, she passed away. (Info)
The family is having her funeral on Saturday at 10:00 am at St. Nicholas Church in Kapeleto, Elias, Greece.
I’m glad Gus’ Mom was able to experience everyone’s love for Greek Mom.

She spent her life loving and taking care of her husband, children and grandchildren. She also loved cooking and feeding them.
Gus’ videos allowed people to get to know his Mom. People enjoyed all of the stories Gus shared about his Greek Mom because they are personal and some are very funny. Plus who doesn’t want to learn to make authentic kolokithokeftedes from a pro?
In February 2022, she was able to see Gus’ show live and after the show, she danced with him on the stage.
RIP. Prayers for her husband, children and grandchildren. Her memory will be eternal with those she loved well.
Update: Gus honored his mother’s memory with a great video. She must be smiling down from heaven.
Hugs,
marlene
