He was without doubt an important figure in recent Cyprus history....He was probably the last living important EOKA leader...He saw off Makarios,Grivas,Yorgadjis,Kiprianu and even Sampson....He was i believe a heavy smoker....I wonder if that was because he was carrying the weight of history on his shoulders....May God have mercy on his soul...And may he rest in peace...
Don't worry about God having mercy on his soul. If He exists then I am sure TPap will take his rightful place, since he dedicated and sacrificed himself for the benefit of the Cypriot people. He loved his country and his people.
He is the saviour of The Republic of Cyprus, and he will be remembered as such forever. The man is a national hero.
