With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Adam Vahan Kardjian, a cherished son, brother, nephew, and friend, who left us far too soon on February 13, 2025, at the age of 35. Adam was a man of quiet strength and gentle spirit, whose loyalty to his family was unwavering. He possessed a kind heart and a dry wit that endeared him to those who knew him best.
Adam's passion for knowledge and dedication to healing led him to pursue his education with fervor. He earned a bachelor's degree in biological science from Arizona State University and later an Associate of Arts degree from Gurnick Academy of Medical Arts in their Diagnostic Radiology Residency Program. His commitment to his studies reflected his deep desire to make a positive impact on the world. He worked in the Healthcare industry as a Radiology technician in Oakland CA and Laveen, AZ.
Adam found joy in the simple pleasures of life. He loved the thrill of a basketball game, the challenge of a good video game, and the unconditional love of his Corgi companion, Rowdy. These moments of peace and recreation provided him with balance and happiness. Recently, Adam had returned to Arizona from California, making his home in Tempe. He was excited to be closer to his family.
Adam leaves behind a legacy of love and quiet strength. He is survived by his devoted father, Aram Kardjian, his loving mother, Marie, and his beloved sister, Lauren Kardjian, with whom he shared a special bond.
We will forever cherish his memory. He will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
A private memorial service will be held for close family to celebrate Adam's life and share their memories. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to CURE Epilepsy in Adam's memory.
