Nana’s father came to the U.S. with his father and two brothers Pete and Costas. They came to Washington and worked in the mines. His boss was a man from Whales named Wells and he took on his last name as it was easier to say.
His father returned to Greece and had more children after that point.
After he and Lucy got married, Demitrius had a Greek friend in Arizona that wrote and told him that there was a restaurant down there and the climate was like Greece. So they went down there and started their lives. They ran the Coffee Cup Cafe at 126 W. Main St. in Mesa.
