A Sense of Identity
by Ed Yaghdjian

Dear Mohamed,
The photo album is magnificent. To see the familiar faces, perhaps a little changed, but nonetheless recognizable, reestablishes a continuity after all these years that is hard to describe appropriately.
Raising a family in a new country and not being able to show my children where I lived or where I went to school has greatly contributed to the sadness that is the inevitable legacy of being uprooted and that has haunted me over the years. This web site and this photo album have given me a renewed sense of identity and a feeling of belonging.
Thamk you again, Mohamed.
Very sincerely,
Eddy
