Read their story

The family name Proussalis originated from the island on Kastelorizos. During the WWI the family was separated and eventually Vassilis found his father Panayiotis in Egypt, Suez, with a broken back. He took over his cabinet making business and in 1953 arrived in Australia with his wife Paraskevi and three children.
