Not sure what to say?

It is so nice seeing this tribute to Penny again. I have many fond memories of her as well as her father. May she Rest In Peace.

You have my sincere condolences and prayers during this difficult time

Deepest Sympathy, the class of 1972,great lady and teacher ,Joycelyn Forest & Family.

Ms. Mirigian you were the best teacher i had in my life. You taught me many things mainly Respect i came to you as an unruly freshman in high school and i left a gentleman a scholar an educated young man thank you for not giving up on me and because of you im a very successful man. Bless you always i had been thinking of you many years and didn't know where to find you.

Mrs Mirigian was my English teacher at Edison. She was tough on me and held me accountable for all my actions. She taught me that you earn what you recieve, and she never graded on a curve. I am so grateful to her because being in her class helped prepare me for my career. My deepest Condolences to the Family.

Mrs. Mirigian was a very Special Lady. She attended the Edison High Class of 1975's 40th Class Reunion and we were so proud that she graced us with her presence. Much love Lady Arpeni and may you rest in everlasting peace❤

Her father Mesrob ("Mess") was a close friend of my father before he got married and lived in Fresno. My late Brother-in-law John Babayan was a Chief Petty Officer in the Navy and also worked on breaking the Japanese Code so they knew one another, too. Its so sad to see everyone from that era gone. I'll be 91 in September so not far behind!

I am so sorry for your loss. May you receive strength and comfort from God. "He will make you firm, he will make you strong, he will firmly ground you." - 1Peter 5:10
