Board and Regional Executive Board, and was chairwoman of the ARS
~SArtemis~T Chapter of Philadelphia. She was involved in every aspect
of organizational life, from the grassroots to the podium.
Ungh. Queenie was a true, dedicated role model for many Ungerouis
throughout the region. In the toughest of times, she was ready to
work with a smile~Wand never expected praise in return.
Ungh. Queenie, and her husband, Unger Albert, spent their lives
promoting the ARS cause. They gave their blood, sweat, and tears to
the Armenian Relief Society. As they always said, the ~SARS is the
organization that has distinguished itself on every continent.~T
Ungh. Takouhi Bagian long sought to brighten the Armenian cultural,
educational and social life in Philadelphia through selfless dedication
to the goals of the Armenian Relief Society. In 1970, she established
the ARS Junior Auxiliary, comprised of young university students

Connect Program).
She also served as a full-time volunteer Armenian school teacher
for language, song, dance, and history, while serving as an ARS
representative to the Armenian National Educational Council (ANEC).
She prepared a practical Armenian lesson book for Armenian-American
youngsters, and continued to develop her life long love of Armenian
music and poetry. She organized, developed, and promoted theatrical
productions, concerts, and other cultural programs.
Both Ung. Albert and Ungh. Takouhi made countless contribution to
the Armenian Relief Society~Rs projects and programs in the United
States and in Armenia.
Together, they were champion donors of the ARS Mother-Child Clinic
in Yerevan and served as benefactors to several other charities. Ungh.
Queenie~Rs love and attachment to the ARS was endless. Just last
September, she sponsored the ~SArtemis~T Chapter~Rs 102nd anniversary
celebration.
Her tireless devotion, dedication, and lifelong efforts on behalf of
the Armenian people will be missed.
