Anna Lucy Hagopian
LOWELL Anna L. (Paroyian) Hagopian, 91, of Lowell, passed away peacefully on Friday, May 24, 2019. She was the wife of the late Jack Hagopian whom she shared thirty nine wonderful years of marriage before he passed away in 1989.
Born in Lowell on October 5, 1927, she was the daughter of the late George Paroyian and the late Lucy (Der Bedrosian) Paroyian. She is also predeceased by her sister, Rose (Paroyian) Hagopian. Anna was a lifelong resident of Lowell and a proud graduate of Lowell High School. She was a Civil Service employee and a professional seamstress for various companies, where she met many lifelong friends.
Anna will be remembered for her quick wit and humor. She enjoyed bowling, playing solitaire, and watching ‘her favorite programs’ which included Perry Mason, Jeopardy, and cooking shows. She was also an avid Red Sox fan. Although she had many passions throughout her life, spending time with her family brought her the most joy, especially cheering on her grandchildren at their sporting events.
As a member of Saints Vartanantz Armenian Church in Chelmsford, she is survived by her two children, George Hagopian and his wife, Margaret of Andover and Joanne Manuelian and her husband, George of Lowell; her five beloved grandchildren, Lindsey Hagopian of Quincy, Michael Manuelian and his wife, Christina of Sudbury, Lisa Shamamian and her husband, Hovhannes of New York City, NY, Karen Manuelian of Lowell, and Jennifer Hagopian of Andover; and her cherished great grandson, Ryan Manuelian of Sudbury; as well as another great grandchild on the way. She is also survived by several nieces and nephews.
