I worked with Armen at Douglas A. Edwards.  We had such a wonderful time with Antreas and the others. Armen always made us laugh.  He used to sing songs the way his mom did and he said she always changed the words.  Like rolling on the river he said she would sing rolling on the Rio Grande.  I was actually at his and Theodora's wedding and I remember they walked into a Bonnie Rhaitt song. Let's give them something to talk about.  I am so sorry to hear about his passing. He was a good person and always had a smile. You will be missed.

Dear Marta:

I don't know if you remember me, but I remember you and Armen fondly from my years as a camper at Camp Nubar. I am so sad to hear that Armen passed away--I just found out.
Armen was such a nice person and I remember that he always treated campers fairly and as equals and stuck up for the smaller/weaker kids whenever needed.
Please accept my condolences which I extend to your family and to his as well--
Sincerely,
Christopher Atamian

I am saddened at the news of Armen's passing and extend my sincere condolences to his family. 
I got to know Armen at American Express, and in my 16 years there I met so many accomplished people, but none who made me laugh like he did. Just being around Armen was fun and uplifting. The man was an encyclopedia of humor and his kindness knew no bounds. 
May his memory be for a blessing.

I worked with Armen at Nice-Actimize for several years, he was always an uplifting personality to have around the office and I will never forget him. His sense of humor and friendliness were ever present - he would always have a kind word for someone and always a joke. He will be truly missed by everyone that ever met him. My heartfelt  condolences to all of Armen's family and friends.  

One of the few specific, detailed memories I have as a child is the day Armen was born.  I had gotten home from school; the Yankees and Braves were on our black and white, round-screened TV playing game 7 of the World Series. The phone rang, and we got the call that Armen was here.  I was ecstatic! I finally had a boy cousin. Marta was great, but she wasn't a boy. That moment was a high point for me. And to this day, Armen holds a special place in my heart.  I wanted him as the best man at my wedding. He not only fulfilled the role on that day at a young age, but he continued to live his life as the Best Man to all he came in contact with. He is truly missed. Rest in Peace, dear Cousin/Brother.

I'm so very sorry to hear of Armen's passing.  

I worked with Armen at American Express.  He was such a happy, kind and cheerful person and always had a smile on his face.  We would often talk about cats and he kindly referred me to a family member who was a veterinarian.

I hope his family can find some comfort in their wonderful memories of Armen.  My condolences and sympathies for his family at this difficult time.

I am so saddened to learn about Armen’s passing. What a lovely man.  It was always a pleasure interacting with him at Amex - he was warm, respectful, and present. My sincerest condolences to his family. 

Our camp family has lost a very special brother, we will NEVER forget his love, laughter & compassion ❤️🇦🇲

Armen,    Kind, generous, loving, giving, and oh-so-funny!  I loved looking at each and every photo the family posted here.  What a beautiful and fruitful life Armen lived.  I knew him and his beautiful sister, Marta, from Camp Nubar.  And through this gallery of pictures I am honored to come to know his wife and children.  May God Bless you all and may Armen rest in peace eternally.  He was truly 'one of the good ones'.   Your memories are bountiful.  Cherish them.

I worked with Armen for a number of years at Amex.  He was always a ray of sunshine!  Armen always stopped to chat and check in on how you were doing. I appreciated our time together and he will be dearly missed. 

Dear Armen, taken away from us much too soon. A wonderful, warm individual that I had the pleasure to know through my friends Charlene (his cousin) and Jon Simonian. We were often together on family holidays, Thanksgiving, Easter, and it was my honor to be part of those gatherings with Armen and Theodora, sometimes with his sister Marta and her husband, and other cousins from his hometown of Philadelphia. He was a man of faith, having served his Church at the Diocesan and local level. May God bless you Armen and rest you in peace, your soul illuminated in Heaven. You will be missed by all those who knew you, and most especially by your Theodora, your children and grandchildren and surviving family. Always in my prayers, Joyce Sulahian

May Armen rest in God’s peace and love. Praying for Theodora and the family.
