BEULAH (“BEE”) ZEPIUR TURKIAN
April 1, 1915 – April 17, 2007

Bee entered into Heaven on April 17, 2007 after a long and courageous
battle with Alzheimer’s disease that tested her mentality, but never diminished her spirit. Born to Samuel and Zepiur Markarian in Los Angeles, California she was raised in San Francisco along with her four sisters.
While at the University of California (Berkeley) she met and later married
her husband of sixty years-Dicran (“Dick”) V. Turkian. She loved her family,
people, cooking (“Pizza Bee”), gardening (former Aqua Vista Garden Club President), dancing, sports, (tennis and golf) and games (crossword puzzles, bridge and backgammon). Bee is preceded in death by her husband Dick and their dog “Bandit.” She is survived by her son Rick and her grandson
Antranik (Kimberly) Tomassian along with many other special people who touched her life. Remembrances may be made to a charity of your choice.
Mom, Nana ‘B’ – “We lubba, lubba, lub you and don’t
you forget it!”
