The Falling Asleep of Vasilios "Bill" Dennis Fallis

Image
  It is with sadness, but with hope in the Resurrection, that we inform you that our beloved brother in Christ, Mr. Vasilios “Bill” Dennis Fallis, 86, of Kernersville, NC, passed away on Thursday, March 20, 2025. Bill was born in Klafsion, Evrytania, Greece on April 18, 1938, to the late Dionisios George Fallis and Amalia Tsitouris Fallis. Bill immigrated to the United States in 1954, joining his father in Danville, VA. He worked in many restaurants in both Danville and Winston-Salem, learning the trade alongside his fellow Greeks before settling in Kernersville in 1965. There, he purchased Spiros CafĂ© at 108 N Main St. In 1967, Bill married his partner in life and business, Bessie Dimos in Greenville, SC. They later renamed the restaurant to Bill’s Pizza Restaurant, introducing pizza to the small town. This decision was inspired by Bessie’s craving for pizza during her first pregnancy and the long drive to Winston-Salem to satisfy it. They eventually changed the name to Bill's Fam...
