Last week, we were deeply grateful to gather at St. John Armenian Church and the Edward and Helen Mardigian Library for a meaningful evening honoring the lifelong friendship of Tom Mooradian and Mitch Kehetian.
Thank you to both for welcoming Jan Mooradian and Rose Kehetian as they reflected on their husbands’ remarkable bond — a friendship that began in childhood and endured for decades, even across differing political beliefs.
We were also grateful for the opportunity to revisit Tom’s memoir, The Repatriate: Love, Basketball, and the KGB, and to share the newly published sequel, The Repatriate Returns: Home, Family, and the FBI.
Our heartfelt thanks to the church, the library, and everyone who joined us. It was a beautiful reminder of friendship, heritage, and stories that continue to connect us.
