RIP Michael Halkias
RIP Michael Halkias, owner of Grand Prospect Hall! Channel 1 News said that he died from the coronavirus. Story here and here Michael’s daughter shared a tribute here.
Last month Halkias was quoted in the newspaper. See here
Many people celebrated important events of their life at Mr. Halkias’ catering hall.
Do you remember the commercials for the Grand Prospect Hall? His wife was such a Queen and in each commercial she said her memorable line, “We make your dreams come true.” Then Mr. Halkias would say, “Grand Prospect Hall” and the phone number.
I’ve been to some great parties at Grand Prospect Hall. On one visit, I stood on the stairs as a friend videotaped me. I said that Queen’s line, “We make your dreams come true.” Mr. Halkias showed up and said I had to do it again with him! While he was standing the stairs with me, I kept messing up my one line. But there is a good copy of the video out there.
Years after that party, my friend had a party for her daughter at Grand Prospect Hall. It was amazing! Every detail was taken care of and their party was perfect.
RIP Michael.
Hugs,
