Everyone in Frankfurt knew him by sight, but very few also knew his name: The charming Greek Emmanuel de Greco, who was always a real eye-catcher with his bicycle decorated with plush, fur, stuffed animals or even flowers, has died. With this man, who always put a smile on the faces of his fellow men with his inimitable manner, the city loses a true original. Whether in everyday life or especially at city festivals - wherever Emmanuel de Greco appeared, he quickly got into conversation with people or had his picture taken with them. You always had the feeling with him that he loved life and his fellow human beings - and that he always remained true to himself.
Emmanuel de Greco had lived in Frankfurt since 1964 and worked as a hairdresser for many years. He has always been unique in his work as well, something that has never changed in his retirement years. He remained just as true to his style of dress, which was inspired by the 1930s, as he did to his red Mitsubishi Sapporo, which was no less strikingly equipped than the bicycle with which the charming Greek became THE eye-catcher of Frankfurt.
In memory of this truly special Frankfurter, a Facebook page has now been created where everyone can post their photos and memories of Emmanuel de Greco.

The funeral will take place on Monday 22.10.2018 at the Greek Orthodox Church Prophet Elias
