    KAREN DEMIRCHYAN WOULD BE 74

    Today Karen Demirchyan would be 74 years old. This is the seventh
    year his relatives and friends have been visiting the Pantheon after
    Komitas on his birthday.

    Karen Demirchyan's relatives consider it meaningless to speak about the
    October 27 events and their consequences under the present authorities
    and prefer to suffer in silence.

    "He was a unique person both as a leader, and as a husband, and as a
    father. I have never met a better person in my life. That's why the
    loss is too bitter.

    My soul can find no consolation. Those who did not know him personally
    cannot imagine who he was. Only the appearance is not enough to know
    him," Karen Demirchyan's widow Rima Demirchyan said.

    The relatives of the other victims of the October 27 events visited the
    Pantheon too .According to Anahit Bakhshyan, Yuri Bakhshyan's widow,
    today's reality has gone astray from human values, "Patriotism, loyalty
    and even the truth are distorted. Everything is in a topsy-turvy. If
    today there are this many people here, it means that only this many
    people exist today in the country."

    Regardless of the change of the political situation, Karen Demirchyan
    and Fadey Sargsyan were bonded with joint work and friendship of many
    years. "I have known him since 1957. He was a very friendly man. When
    we played a game, he wanted to let me win intentionally, but he always
    won as he was stronger. He was a unique person with his diligence,
    fidelity to principles, and shrewd mind. Even in the Soviet Union he
    never surrendered to anyone. In any situation he was able to gain a
    victory," Fadey Sargsyan, one of his closest friends said.
