Frederick Balian

Words can not express the pain or sorrow of the loss of such a great man. Every thought of him brings a smile to my face. I loved all the times going by the house and enjoying talks and jokes. I have never met a family that is so loving, caring and welcomes you right into their home. We are blessed to be included as part of the family, and we will carry that with us always. God Bless the entire family.
Love, Dale, Diane, Jennifer, & Tiffany Ekstrom

Our condolences to Aunty Gloria, Karen, Habib, Joe, and the Balian family. Uncle Fred, we will always remember your sense of humour and miss you. We won't forget how much you loved fudge and chocolate covered cherries. Our Holidays won't be the same without you.
Love,
The Matosian Family

Dear Gloria,
It was with great sadness that we heard the news of the untimely passing of your husband. We all have such fond memerories sitting around your kitchen table while Fred made jokes and teased the kids,especially Talar[He was always
hoping to one day play matchmaker and fix her up with Mark or Zareh Fred. I guess Karen and I will have to work on that one!]
Although I am far away, I have always felt a loving connection with your family,especially Karen and Zareh...

I will always treasure the time I was able to spend with Uncle Fred. He was a wonderful person to be around - always cheerful, witty, and thoughtful. He will be in our hearts forever. God Bless my family in California - I am thinking of you all the time.

Love,
David

Karen,
I am sorry about your dad's passing. I'm sure he is in a better place right now. I remember yours being a very loving family and I too remember the beautiful Christmas lights on your homes. I would drive over an hour to see them. The display he did would warm my heart. Take Care and God Bless.

Uncle Fred was a great man...one that I will remember forever.
Love,
Justin Sous

My memories of your father/grandfather are ones of a very kind, smiling, and generous man. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. May God give you patience, and may his memory always stay bright in all our lives.

My thoughts and sympathy to all the families.

Auntie Gloria, my heartfelt condolences and prayers are with you always. Uncle Fred was a very sweet man and I can only imagine what you're feeling right now. Take comfort in the fact that he's no longer suffering and he left behind a wonderful family, one he helped shape into the group of awesome human beings.You will never be alone ! Love, Peggy
