my Dad is my best friend/go to person no matter what you were ever going through that never ever stopped you from always helping me first. We were so close that I could just call & text you whenever I need you. We had our A&A times those are what I miss most. You taught me so much in this life, but you never ever could teach me how to go on without you here with me. You took me on so many fun trips over the years. There was not anything at all that you never ever could do especially for me. You were always so proud of your roots. You loved your family, friends, music, coins, trains, watches, pens, coupons, food & animals. You forever will be the only man that I will ever love. You were apart of so many different clubs/organizations. You were a true workaholic even on your final days. You are so smart, silly, honest, loyal, sensitive, pure, generous, devoted & everything else in between. So to know you is to just love you. God truly broke his mold when he made you Dad. Nobody else can or will ever do it better than you ever did Pops. I am SO proud to be your little scooter pie. You truly did save my life. My Helen loves her Baba so much she really misses you more than you can ever begin to believe. I promise that as long as i am breathing this air to try to keep everyone going even when they can not do it own their own. All good things must come to end, but I can not wait until it is my turn so I can finally hug my Army again. Please say hi to Grandpa, Uncle Jack, Grandma, Aunt Alice, Uncle Johnny & Aunt Rose for me. Now you can finally sleep again. 💯🥺👨‍👧💔

I spoke to Armen a few times during the past years he knows me from the many Armenian  dances in Conn the cape province asbury park & more, I would ask  where the keff is taking place ,, those were good times and I think he recorded the music at the affairs, He was a pleasure to chat with ,  he was a kind and warm hearted 
I’m sorry that he lived so far from me ,,  I would see him at many Armenian affairs, 
I’m sorry to hear of his passing,
He knows me as Mambo Jack
I will always Remember Him,
Condolences to all the family Members,
Jack Berberian

Jones Beach Theater with Armen and Nick. Armen would always have to drive, which was a little scary but he knew the in's and out's and how to get to the front row parking, never cutting anyone off LOL! While in the theater, he also had the same go to attitude and always got the better seats then what they gave him, only Armen, :) Then of course, on the way home there was always that mandatory stop at White Castle, he had to order his himself, ordering to only the way he liked and wanted to make sure it was done the right way! We always enjoyed each others company, it was a relationship which began with the love of music, then emerged into talking about his watches, cars and various types of liquor, there was always an interesting conversation with Armen. 
On another note; At the end of his Friday night bartending shifts at the Post 94 and I (Jen) would take over, he would sit at the end of the bar, having his B&B, Campari or Makers Mark (111) and always tell me, "I can't believe, you have so much energy, the way you come in and clean", you don't stand still.  I think he got a kick out of it. LOL
Armen you were a "Great Guy" and a "Great Friend" to all, it was a pleasure to have you in our lives. You will be missed dearly.  We love you, your friends, Jen & Ran.

At the end of the night, this is the time Armen fell back on those stupid folding chairs they made us sit on for the Jimmy Buffett concert, it was dark and he was a little shookin up. His brand new hat had fallin' off and he didn't realize it until we were outside the gate, the guard wouldn't let us back in to get it. We weren't about to leave without it! Armen being Armen made his point and we got the guards supervisor, which then allowed us go back to where we were sitting, the people who were behind us were still there holding the hat, We got his hat!!!! Another great time with Armen, tailgating, having some cocktails and of course FOOD and then some music. 

When we think of our "Uncle" Armen, there are 40 years of memories of good food, great stories and lots of laughs.  He will be sorely missed. 

When thinking of Armen, the first memory that came to mind was at my brother's funeral. Armen, Margraret, Ellena, and Anoush all came, which was a great support to me and my family. At some point during the funeral, I saw Armen standing in the back of the church with tears the size of hubcaps pouring down his face for a man he'd never met.  He had such a big heart, not just for his country, but for his family, friends, and for those connected to his family and friends.  Rest in peace, Armen, and sending much love, hugs, and comfort to Margaret, Ellena, Anoush, and Nick. 

Dear Margaret, Ellen’s, Anoush &family,

Sincere condolences go out to all of you at this difficult time. My memories of Armen go back more than 50 years. Throughout those years, I remember Armen’s devotion to supporting Armenian youth through his involvement with the Armenian Students Association, and his love of Armenian culture-he was a real Kef-gee. 
Sincerely, Ken & Esther Kalajian 

Armen was a friend and fraternity brother to me for 53 years.  We fondly called him “Inky”. He was a giant in so many people’s lives. He always jumped in with two feet in whatever endeavor he was involved. He was the ultimate TKE, involved in organizing events for get togethers for over 50 years. He was always proud of his Navy service to our country but his patriotism didn’t stop there. He joined the American Legion and became Commander of the post. He was a real leader and positively affected so many peoples lives. I am thankful for his friendship all these years and that I got to speak with him and Peggy about six weeks ago. I want to send my heart felt condolences to Peggy and family and let them know that Inky will be in my thoughts for the rest of my life. May God bless him and keep him close and reunite him with his and our close friend and fraternity brother Mike Reid. 
to Peggy

I’m very sorry to hear of Armen’s passing.
My memories of Armen’s  kindness will never be forgotten. We had a very close mutual friend who knew Arman and I was coming back to Baltimore from the Dallas area and no longer had an apartment. I think I stayed probably a month and one of his guest rooms with two cats. He also let me store some things they are long term. He was very generous and sweet, and had a very wry  sense of humor. I am truly sorry for your loss.

My deepest respect and prayers for my fraternity brother, my friend for over 45 years … May your courageous soul live in Gods  grace… my heartfelt condolences to his wife Margaret, his daughter Anoush  and his son Nicholas, all the family, al the great  Americans he so deeply loved , RIP my brother 🇺🇸🙏🏻❤️💪

Sympathies and prayers from an old shipmate on the USS John A Bole DD755. I have fond memories of Armen on our 1969-1970 WestPac cruise. Ted (Zeke1) Zylstra FTG 3🙏🙏🙏

Armen was so kind and supportive to my musician son who is on the autism spectrum. He chose him to entertain at the Legion’s Sunday Breakfasts where we always looked forward to the food and fellowship.

I have so many wonderful memories of Armen. You all were my extended family in high school and college.  Thank you for putting up with all of my nonsense when I was young.  We did so many things together- fancy prom dinner, building a fence, farming, long chats at life, etc.  Armen was such a wonderful person. I am sending love and prayers. Always thinking about you. Jessie Dolan McNulty

I am greatly saddened to learn that Armen ("Inky") has passed. As a young TKE pledge at C.W. Post Inky was a strong positive and guiding influence on me and my pledge class brothers. His patriotism, family love, and joie de vivre were evident in everything he did and said.
May he rest in peace, joyful to celebrate the Christmas season in heaven. God Bless.

Dearest Family.
Armen was such a wonderful man to so many.   My sister Frada was fortunate to be his friend for many years. I too had the pleasure and am grateful for his visits and FaceTime  to her when in Maryland.  Frada now with dementia and debilitated always will cherish her friendship with Armen and his family.   When trying to adopt their loving daughter  from Armenia, Frada stepped in with love in her heart to contact politicians to help Armen and Margaret’s dream come true!   With love and sadness  our family sends love for a shared loss.  Armen Rest In Peace and be free from such a terrible disease that took you much too soon.  Always will be in our hearts!

Sending love and prayers to Armen’s family. Armen you will be missed! Thank you for all your work at the American Legion Hall. You were always there for the Babylon businesses. May you rest in eternal peace.
