Arety “Tula” Cotzias, 90, of Ridgewood, entered into eternal life on August 14, 2017. Arety’s smile and loving kind heart carried her family through treasured moments and milestones. Her wisdom was plentiful and her advice profound. “Elegance is about not being noticed, but being remembered”. We will certainly all remember her dignity, elegance and grace.

She will be remembered like a great aunt to Arianna, Aiden, Nico, Luca and Chloe who were fortunate to have been blessed by her kindness, warmth and endless supply of Hagen Daaz ice cream.
