News of the actor's death spread on Sunday, and early on Monday morning Delivorias posted his own farewell on his personal Instagram account.

What Delivorias wrote

Delivorias said Kalogeropoulos was the kind of artist who drank straight from the Source of the Muses every time he performed, and that his soul had already done what was needed to remain forever beside them. He said he would never forget what each of the actor's appearances meant to his heart, his language and his senses, naming his roles in Marangos, in Perakis, in "Dream of a Leftist Night," in "Camping," in "Knights of Pylos" and in all his other work. He closed the post by wishing Kalogeropoulos a good reunion somewhere in Nature.
