Annabelle Aivazian, age 65, of Fresno, California, passed away on Monday, February 23, 2026. She was deeply loved and adored by many and will be remembered as an amazing wife, mother, grandmother, and friend.

Annabelle was born on June 3, 1960, in Stockton, California, to Archie and Asdghig (Aghazarian) Sarkissian. She grew up in Fresno and was an active member of the Pilgrim Armenian Church youth group. She graduated from Hoover High School in 1978 and went on to earn her Bachelor of Arts degree in Home Economics from Fresno State in 1983.

On April 27, 1985, she married the love of her life, Ron Aivazian. They had been together since they were just 15 and 17 years old—a beautiful love story that spanned 48 years.

Annabelle was a dedicated caregiver at Fresno Senior Living. The residents and her co-workers spoke the highest praises of her, describing her as warm, kind, and compassionate. She had a natural gift for caring for others, and her work family became a second family to her.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Archie and Asdghig Sarkissian.
She is lovingly remembered by her devoted husband, Ron; her daughter, Breanna; her son-in-law, Nerso; and the absolute joy of her life, her 14-month-old grandson, Abraham.

Annabelle's love, compassion, and gentle spirit will live on in the hearts of all who knew her.
