IN MEMORIAM SOUREN SAROUKHANOFF

IN MEMORIAM

SOUREN SAROUKHANOFF

It is with great sorrow that we heard the tragic news of the sudden passing away of Souren Saroukhanoff on Saturday 14th of August 2010 whilst he was in France on holiday with his wife Ovsig.

Souren was a highly respected and eminent member of the British Armenian community. He was elected to serve as a member of the Armenian Community & Church Council of Great Britain in 2002 and he was elected by the Council to chair the Councils Executive Committee. As chairman of the Executive Committee of the ACCC Souren worked with full dedication in service to the community and the Church and he and Ovsig were highly active in community life.

In October 2009 Souren was the happiest man in the world as he gave away his daughter Huby in marriage to George Yaghoubian and we would like to extend our deepest sympathies and sincere condolences to Ovsig, Huby and George for their tragic loss.

We will all miss Souren.

May he rest in Peace.
