A finer man than Nerses did not exist. He possessed all of the finest qualities that we all seek and shared them with everyone. He was truly kind, considerate, thoughtful, compassionate, honorable, loving, and humble. He lived by these traits and always had a warm and friendly smile of encouragement for all. His voice and actions made him a beacon for the entire Armenian community across this Armenian land.

I offer my most profound and heartfelt sympathy to John, Sue and David, Janet and all of Nerses" family.

Good bye to a true gentle man.
