Oh my dearest Simon,
I just read the issue you have so wisely and kindly released about
the
Tutundjian family tragedy... I feel sadder than ever, inconsolably
so. All
I can do is sob silently.
Obviously my prayers, and that of their friends, and the prayers of
the one
and half million innocent Armenians on their way to Calvary in the
deserts
of Der Zor, counted for nothing at the court of the Heavenly Lord...
Moments like this turns us all thinking and feeling people into sad
atheists!
Yours ever Prof. Pilikian - England

REMEMBERING OUR TEAM-MATE AND FRIEND HAGOP TUTUNDJIAN
Hagop Tutundjian (center in the black shirt with beard, holding the
Trophy)
was the star goal-keeper of AYMA football team for a decade.
One of our sweetest victories are associated with his courage
and
exceptional skills as a goal-keeper in the finals of the Cyprus
Amateur
Football Cup. After we had given everything on the football ground
for 90
minutes and 30 minutes in goalless extra time, our hopes were hanging
from
our goal-keeper, Hagop Tutundjian.
His golden fingers saved the fifth and final shot of a penalty
shoot-out that gave the Cup to the Armenian team, after it had won
the
Championship weeks earlier.
Hundreds stormed the pitch who lifted Hagop on their shoulders.
He had
literally saved the day for all of us.
We will remember you always. How can we forget our sweetest memories?
YOUR TEAM-MATES OF THE THE CHAMPION - WINNING FOOTBALL TEAM OF AYMA
1977 -
1978.

We will always remember their friendly and warm personality, their
positive
attitude to life, their care and concern for others, and their
contribution
to community affairs...
May they rest in peace...

We will always remember Hagop and Hilda. Our teenage memories are

Dear Simon,
It's really difficult to find words and express the tragic death of

Its
really shocking.
May God rest their Soul in peace.
