Rosig Injejikian
Rosig Injejikian, devoted wife of the late Hagop Injejikian, loving mother, grandmother and aunt, passed away May 11 in Glendale at the age of 93.
Rosig, whose parents were from Van, Armenia, was born in Tabriz, Iran and grew up in Beirut, Lebanon as part of the gregarious and music-loving Khanjian family. She studied piano at the Beirut conservatory and often played in a band with her brothers, Kourken, Suren and Papken.
Rosig married Hagop Injejikian in 1949, and they brought their young family to the United States in 1956. They settled in Los Feliz and later moved to the San Fernando Valley. Rosig and Hagop thrived in their new country and were active members of the Los Angeles area Armenian community. They were founding members of Holy Martyrs Armenian Apostolic Church in Encino, where Rosig played the organ during services in the early years. She also voluntarily taught general music courses at Holy Martyrs Armenian High School.
