I have belatedly just learned of the Loss of one of our region's great ladies. Her salon was like none other in its layer upon layers of world perspective, enthusiasm for living itself, expressed in conversation, social wealth, faith, art and engaging food and wine; one who lived on a sphere rather than a plane. Those who passed through her world received and then received some more. Blessings to her Family.

Vicken and Haig, I will miss her. It was wonderful to speak with her and hear the memories of Palestine, in Arabic and Italian.

Maral and family, I am so sorry for the loss of your dear Mother. She led such a fascinating and full life I would loved to have known her. She was so accomplished and so engaged that it is clear she lived her life fully. I know she will be dearly missed.

Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. Please continue to get support from family,friends and God. Gain strength by reading in your Bible at Revelation 21:3-4, where it says of the time ,”And he (God) will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more...nor pain be anymore.” Hope you can think of the good memories and gain comfort from Jehovah God.

My deepest sympathy to the Kalbian family. I remember a fun birthday party at the Mosby street house and the best part was that most delicious birthday cake that Mrs. Kalbian baked. May happy memories sustain you during these difficult times. Becky McAboy Wisecarver

I was saddened to hear about Ada. Recently, I was thinking so fondly about your family and the roll you all played in those formative years. Your Mom was such an interesting woman. It’s funny the things you remember. Specifically, I remember her telling me about the clay lamps in the glass cabinet in your living room. Many prayers to you all
