Alex and Lilia,

It has been a very rewarding 4 years to have worked alongside you and seen you grow and mature both as musicians but also philanthropists and activists. Through music, you both have kept our traditions and culture alive. Through your activism, you have contributed in the creation and development of our current culture and country. Thank you for both preserving our past and also building our future. I truly have enjoyed getting to know you and can’t wait for the years to come!

Thank you so much for everything Alex and Lilia! You guys were such a bright light for UCLA’s chapter, I looked forward to every event or activity you guys would put together. You did an incredible amount for HRI and gave back in so many different ways. All of our chapter leaders should take something away from your presidency.  It was so great getting to know you both these past couple of years - excited to see you guys both kill it in grad school, don’t be strangers!

Alex and Lilia jan,

Ah, what is there to say other than you two are one of the most extraordinary people I've met? The beauty you two radiate is not only in your outer and inner beings, rather at the tip of your fingertips. With your fingers you played upon the heartstrings of our roots, drawing us in the process, for which I cannot thank you more. I cannot thank you more that you've decided to continue to pursue the preservation of our cultural muse. And aside from the music you play, you've shown what it means to be Armenian through your continuous activism in HRI when I was in it. Not only were you both good leaders, but I'll always remeber you as people who didn't fear to lift up other leaders. When I needed help, you guys willingly allowed me to watch in on your meeting, not withholding a single detail. We became friends and we supported one another. And I enjoyed working alongside you two, moreso it was an honor. And I'm hoping we can continue to push forward in our friendship ♥️♥️

Love,
Meri

Lilia and Alex,
Congrats on graduating!! And thank you so much for helping our branch every step of the way-- after all, if it hadn't been for you guys, we would never have opened a branch at AGBU. I'm so excited to continue working in the UCLA branch since I've seen how much was accomplished under your leadership. Thanks for being great role models, and sorry, but I'll probably still be messaging you for one thing or another :)

Thank you both for everything you have accomplished with HRI throughout the past few years. I feel so fortunate to have been with HRI at the same time as you two, so that I get to follow your journeys, both within and outside of the organization. The strength within the UCLA chapter is a reflection of your passion and dedication to the youth of Armenia's villages, and we are infinitely grateful for your efforts and warm smiles. I can't wait to see where your extraordinary musical talent and top-notch education will take you both in your lives. Mwah! I'll miss you girls!

With love,
Lori <3
