It is with profound sorrow that we announce the passing of Raphy Avedis Kasselian, beloved
husband, father, son, brother and friend, who left us on October 3, 2024.

Born on August 2, 1961, Raphy was a loyal, honest and generous man. He devoted his life to
his work and family. His work ethic and dedication were admired by all. He was exceptional in
his professional pursuits.

Beyond his professional achievements, Raphy was a devoted family man. He leaves behind his
loving wife, Wasan, son, Gabriel, mother, Marie, brother, Michael and countless other family
members and friends who will cherish his memory.

He found great joy in spending quality time with his family, taking long walks, gardening,
listening to music, smoking cigars and drinking a good glass of wine.
His legacy of love, integrity, and generosity will live on in the hearts of those who knew him.
A celebration of Raphy's life will be held on Saturday, October 5, 2024 at 10:00 am at
St Joseph Chaldean Catholic Church.

We will forever hold Raphy in our hearts and remember the beautiful person he was.
May he rest in eternal peace.
