YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 26, ARMENPRESS. Armenian soldier Norik Sargsyan fallen during the April four-day war today would turn 20 years old.

“3 of my children were very quiet, but the remaining three quite the contrary. Norik had a quiet character both at home and at school. If we were asking something, he was doing it with a silence. He could do everything. Recently he even was helping his father, they were repairing the houses in the village”, Norik’s mother said in an interview with “Armenpress”.

His mother said Norik never complained from the service, he even said it is quite better in the posts.

“He was very excited about starting the military service. Before him his brothers served in the army, he was calling and speaking with them about the service. He said he had already adapted to the service. We were sending candies, the necessary things two times in a month, last time we have sent before he was going to the posts. He asked us for money, but we were unable to send. He said don’t worry, it’s ok”, his mother Lena said.

Last time Norik spoke with relatives on April 1.

“He said I am going to the posts, I will call. We waited but he didn’t call no more. That day the news on war spread, we started to worry. Our neighbor’s son was serving with Norik, we asked to tell Norik to call us, but then we became aware from our relatives that he is among the missing”, Mrs. Lena said.

Norik’s father Zaven Sargsyan is Karabakh war participant. He said with proud that one of the commanders called him and thanked for bringing up such a son.

“My Norik was very quiet, he loved solitude, never complained. One month before the incident his brothers visited him, he said everything is good”, father said.

 Glory to you, hero.
