The holidaymakers were on their way to a beach when the accident happened.
The couple, from Strășeni in Moldova, were travelling with their two young daughters when the smash happened on the road between Nea Moudania and Nikiti in Greece’s Halkidiki peninsula.
Lucia and the baby died at the scene.
Constantin was cut from the wreckage and rushed to hospital in Polygyros but died hours later despite desperate efforts to save him.
Their seven-year-old daughter was seriously injured and airlifted to a hospital in Thessaloniki where she remains in critical condition.
She is the family’s only survivor.
The family had set off for a beach break after the arrival of their second child.
Relatives described the couple as a close, hard-working, kind people.

She said: “I urge everyone who can and wants to offer help to contribute, as much as possible, to the accounts opened exclusively for collecting donations, with the family’s agreement.
“Every penny counts, every kind thought, every sharing of this message is real support in these moments of terrible trial.”
The Greek authorities are investigating the exact cause of the collision.
The lorry driver was unharmed in the smash.
