    Burbank woman turns 108 on Thanksgiving

    Burbank resident Theresa Alexian turned 108 years old on Thanksgiving
    Day, giving her family members, who described her as a "living saint,"
    a reason to be especially thankful.

    The youngest of four children, Alexian was born in Iran to a priest of
    the Armenian Apostolic Church and a homemaker, according to her
    niece's son Raffi Bandarian.

    While she never married, she devoted her life to raising her niece
    and her niece's three sons, one of whom described her as loving to
    sing, cook and make a nice home for her family.

    According to Bandarian, Alexian said she has no enemies.

    "If I had one... I would tell them that I loved them very much," he
    recalled her saying.
