I am forwarding this message from the Avakian family.

We are greatly saddened to report the passing of our father, George
Avakian. He died peacefully at home, Wednesday November 22.
As anyone who knows him knows, he had a wonderful, full and active life up
until the end. Our family was able to care for him with love at home. It
was a blessing to have that time together as a family.
