    YEREVAN. - The oldest member of Artists' Union of Armenia Yelena
    Arahamyan has passed away.

    She was one of those who survived the Armenian Genocide. Last year
    Armenian News-NEWS.am wrote about the life of Yelena Arahamyan.

    Yelena Arahamyan was born in Kars. Escaping from Turkey she lost her
    birth certificate. Her relatives say she was born in 1909or 1910.

    Yelena was an artist, member of Armenia's Society of Artists since 194

    She lived in Yerevan, alone with her memories and numerous self-made
    canvases. She was seven or eight during those bloody events but she
    survived all the horrors.
