It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Shakeh Stepanian on April 9th, 2024.
Shakeh was born in Musa Dash, Syria in 1934 to Apraham and Sima Nekrourian. She lived in Lebanon until moving to Canada. In 1969 she married Jirair Stepanian who she now reunites with in heaven. Shakeh was a loving mother to Sonia (Vartan) and Raffi (Salpy) and a doting grandmother to four grandchildren, Ari, Tivene, Alec, and Aren.
Shakeh was an example of positivity and kindness to all who knew her. She showed a love for her children and grandchildren, her heritage, and her faith, all of which she instilled in her family. She will be missed by her family, friends, and all who had the pleasure of knowing her.
In lieu of flowers, contributions in Shakeh's memory may be made to St. Mary Armenian Apostolic Church, ARS Day School, or The Alzheimer Society of Canada.
