| Love: Arousiag “Alyce” Keshishian & Gregory Krikor Vartanian
Nov. 24 at St. Gregory the Illuminator Armenian Apostolic Church in Philadelphia. Father Nerses Manoogian officiated and a reception for 118 followed at the Drexelbrook in Drexel Hill. They met In August 2006. Alyce, 38, and Greg, 36, told everyone they met through their friend Kathy - kind of true, as it was Kathy who suggested that Alyce try an Armenian dating Web site. But the couple soon discovered they could have met in a more old-fashioned way, as their families have bumped into each other for decades: Alyce was born in Beirut, Lebanon, and a kind neighbor who was helping her young parents was the first to bathe the baby. Turns out this neighbor was Gregory's great-aunt Ankine. Alyce's cousins live next door to Greg's cousins in Toronto.
Thinking of spring training, Francoeur’s future
With so much attention understandably directed toward the return of Glavine, the situation with Teixeira, the huge question mark in center field, and other matters with the Braves, it's possible that much of their success could also ride on the continued development of their right fielder, who's now the veteran of the Braves outfield, a Gold Glove winner, the team's union player rep, and a team spokesman on many matters. That leadership is emerging, more and more. He's made for that role. Now, it'll be interesting to see how the future continues to unfold for former Atlanta-area prep phenom, the can't-miss prospect, the newlywed, the energetic, upbeat kid who so far been able to thrive despite nearly impossible expectations some have for him. Oh, and it'll obviously be interesting to see if and when he and the Braves come to a multi-year contract agreement that could both cement his status as a face of the franchise and possibly lift at least a little of the pressure off his sizeable shoulders.
