Residents of Marmara village on the Aegean island of Paros attend a funeral ceremony of a father and his child September 28, 2000 killed in the sinking of the Express Samina ferry off the port of the island September 26, 2000. Thodoris Kaparos, 40, and his child Manolis, 5, died during the accident as wife Angela was the only survivor of the family. Greek investigators struggled to shed light on why the passenger ferry hit rocks and sank, killing at least 64 people in the country's worst sea tragedy for 35 years and added they were baffled by how the ship could have missed a charted islet with a lighthouse.
