Very sad news that Demetri Callas passed away last night, 12 January 2020, at the nursing home where he was being looked after.
He had been ill for some time and his health had deteriorated quickly recently with him being confined to bed, unable move his arms or legs, and he had difficulty eating.
Bill DeLoach has asked me to thank everyone who forwarded get well wishes to Demetri and to let you know that Demetri loved the cards, photographs and letters that were sent to him.
We send our sincere condolences to Demetri's family and friends at this very sad time and especially to Bill DeLoach, Joe Long and Ed Kratzel who has been at Demetri's side throughout his illness.
We will let you know funeral details when they are available.
A larger than life character who will be very much missed by everyone whose lives he touched.
Thank you for the wonderful music and the memories. RIP.
