She was a lifetime member of the Greek Orthodox Church Holy of Trinity, where she served with dedication and love. Harriet is survived by her husband John, daughter Hanna, and son John David, as well as her bothers Jerry Moskos of Charleston, SC, and Paul Moskos (Bonnie) of Chapin, SC, and numerous nieces and nephews. They would like to thank all the family and friends that have helped Harriet during her courageous battle.
