Maria Meletakos Mitchell
October 15, 1939 - May 13, 2022
Maria Meletakos Mitchell is now at peace and with God after fighting a battle with Alzheimer’s Disease for over ten years. She will reunite with her parents Stella and Pete, her sisters, Betty and Stephanie, and brother Nick. Born and raised in Washington, D.C., Maria attended Calvin Coolidge High School and was a member of Saints Constantine and Helen Greek Orthodox Church. After graduating, Maria began a successful career working for the U.S. Department of State and achieved high security clearances. Maria dedicated her life to making people happy by giving, sharing, and helping. To know her was to love her. She had the type of contagious personality where everyone wanted to be around her, and she could “really work a room”. Maria loved to cook and bake, especially her favorite Greek dishes. Some are on the menu at Momma Maria’s Mediterranean Bistro, in Trappe, Maryland, which the family opened to honor her hospitality. She also loved to go to Ocean City and lay on the beach and drink Piña Coladas. She is survived by her husband Thomas, son Dorian, daughter Teresa and husband Curtis Snyder and new granddaughter Eleni Ann, plus sisters Alicia and Francyne and brother and sister-in-law Joseph and Liz. There will be a memorial mass at Saints Peter and Paul Catholic Church, Friday, May 20 at 2PM. Reception will follow at the Maria M. Mitchell Social Hall at Saints Peter and Paul Church. Maria’s favorite saying was “Love you more” and we all certainly did and will forever.
