Yerevan /Mediamax/. Today President of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan sent a letter of condolence on the death of famous Armenian-American businessman and philanthropist, National Hero of Armenia Kirk Kerkorian.

“I learnt with deep pain about the death of great Armenian philanthropist, National Hero of Armenia Kirk Kerkorian. I am sure everyone in Armenia, Artsakh and Diaspora shares this pain.

 

As an entrepreneur and a businessman he had become a legend during his lifetime and used to enjoy international fame. He had become an example of a surviving Armenian and a model of an assiduous, wise, kind and modest person.

 

The Lincy Foundation established by Kirk Kerkorian supported Armenian people during the hard times they were going through helping them overcome the difficulties and step on the way leading to development. The programs carried out by the Foundation gave a new and powerful impetus to the Armenian economy gravely changing the description of our country.

 

I am convinced that the blessed memory of this great Armenian and National Hero of Armenia will live forever and our people will recall him with pride and gratitude.

 

I extend my condolences to each of us for this great loss,” the President’s letter of condolence reads.
