Archbishop Damian (Albanian: Kryepeshkop Damian, secular name Dhimitër Kokoneshi; 1886 - 8 October 1973, Pogradec) was the bishop of the Orthodox Autocephalous Church of Albania from April 1966 until February 1967, when the religion was abolished in Albania.
Kokoneshi was born in 1886 in the village of Llëngë in Mokër region, (part of then Ottoman Empire), near Pogradec in today's Albania. He was of Vlach descent. His early education included attending the Normal School of Monastir in 1896 and the Academy of Theology in Ioannina in 1925.
On November 27, 1918, the Émigré Albanian Orthodox clerics sent a signed petition to the U.S. President, then Woodrow Wilson, asking for support of Albanian Church becoming autocephalous. The cleric's position was based on Albania becoming an independent country. The petition was signed by Father Theofan Stilian Noli, Father Damian Kokoneshi, Father Naum Cëre, Father Vasil Marko Kondili, Father Pando Sinica, and Father Vangjel Çamçe, future metropolitan Agathangjeli. The petition was supported by the Albanian Church Assembly ("Kuvendi Kishëtar") in Boston, MA on July 30, 1919. Autocephaly was finally declared at the Congress of Berat on September 12, 1922.

Cuando empecé a escuchar
el rock & roll desde atrás
cuando la diabla te esperaba
con su brillo en el pasillo.
Y si esa brigada de un barrio del sur
sabía que eras quién tenía que entrar
sin aportar credencial
si no lo nonos,
no salían nada a tocar.
No te desesperes si no me encontrás
algún gaucho de Güenes habrá
o you know who
for you know what
con la dicha de Hugo y Daniel.
Mi corazón fue papel
no demolió un hotel,
ya era la vida cruel
cuando obligado lo vi y también
vi colgar de sus ramas a quién
En Arados brotó un plato azul
la nena era un bombón
a su mamá me enterneció verla hacer
entre gatos, lo mío
diez años después.
No me quisiera olvidar de vender
yo fui líder y rock & roll star.
