I suggest 2 Armenian Language starting booklets for Guekguezian’s son, Let’s Chat and Let’s Chat2 from ANEC department of the Armenian Prelacy. It makes old and young Armenian learners very happy and satisfied.
Do don’t really mean June 17, 1929? Do you?
I love Jeopardy, which is very easy to play in your own home–maybe not so simple when in a competitive setting. Congrats to Peter G. for winning, and also for trying to teach his son our language.
Our small Rochester (NY) Armenian Community looks forward to the presence of Peter Guekguezian and Family this Fall ! Our Annual Armenian Church Picnic will held on Sunday, September 17 at King’s Bend Park (Pittsford).

Hamazkayin has 2 apps, “kouynerou ashkhar” and “tseverou ashkhar”, these 2 apps work both with ios ans android. They tech the child the different colors and shapes in Armenian, but also different words (objet, animal, fruits amd veggies etc) through games.
Just type kouynerou ashkhar Lalan ou Aran
What relation is Peter Guezguezian to the late Rev. Bernard & Knar, formerly pastoral family in Fresno, CA? IS he their 3rd son? I was a member of the first church they served in USA, Church of the Martyrs in Worcester, MA, and recall when they first arrived in winter, 1958 with their new first baby, who graduated from Harvard.
