On the afternoon of Thursday, March 15, 2018, H.E. Archbishop Moushegh Mardirossian, Prelate, welcomed the visit of the newly appointed City Manager of Glendale, Mrs. Yasmin Beers, who was accompanied by Mr. John Takhtalian, Deputy City Manager, and Mr. Tom Lorenz, Director of Communications and Community Relations.
Following introductions, the Prelate congratulated Mrs. Beers on her appointment and expressed confidence that she will thrive in her new duties based on her extensive experience within the city over the past three decades.
The conversation turned to matters of interest to the Armenian-American community, among them the establishment of the Armenian American Museum in Glendale. The Prelate expressed appreciation for the city’s support of the project. In a fitting coincidence, the project’s stage one plans were submitted to the city earlier in the day. His Eminence wished the new City Manager success in her new post and Mrs. Beers expressed her thanks and appreciation for the warm welcome and well wishes.
