Jerusalem 1950

First person on the left at the table in the foreground is my aunt, Ms. Vartouhi Ekhsigian. I don’t know the next two women, but the fourth from left is my mother, Mrs. Ovsanna Soukiassian. Sitting next to her is my father, Mr. Vahan Soukiassian. I do not know the man on the far right sitting next to my dad. What I like about this photo is all the people in the background.
