    On August 7, 2009 an event commemorating the legacy of His Eminence
    Archbishop Nerses Bozablian was held in Nazareth and Sima Kalaydjian
    Hall of Arshag and Eleanor Dickranian Diocesan Complex in Burbank,
    California. His Eminence Archbishop Hovnan Derderian, Primate preside
    over the event. His Eminence Archbishop Vatche Hovsepian, His Eminence
    Archbishop Yeprem Tapagian and a number of Clergy from the greater
    Los Angeles area brought their participation to this event.

    Master of Ceremonies Ms. Varser Markarian, Secretary of Balian
    Society, welcomed the attendees and invited His Eminence Archbishop
    Hovnan Derderian to speak on the somber occasion. Rev. Archpriest
    Fr. Dr. Zaven Arzoumanian presented a thorough description of the
    life of late Archbishop Nerses Bozabalian.

    On the morning of June 27, His Eminence Archbishop Nerses Bozabalian
    entered his eternal rest. He was one of the senior members of the
    Brotherhood of Holy Etchmiadzin and a devoted servant of the Armenian
    Holy Apostolic Church. He was 72.

    Archbishop Nerses was seriously injured as a result of a robbery attack
    committed by an acquaintance on February 18, 2009. The attack occurred
    in his home on the grounds of the Mother See. He was hospitalized
    in a coma at the Nairi Medical Center. The Archbishop had remained
    under the compassionate care of the Medical Center until the time
    of his death. The death of the Archbishop was a great loss for the
    Armenian Church and her faithful.
