Born and raised in Newport, Paul spent over 30 years in the real estate business. He graduated from De la Salle and Fairfield University, then returned to Newport where he ran two small Thames Street retail shops. A few years later, he became a real estate appraiser and quickly earned a reputation as an expert in complicated valuations including mansion properties, time share developments, marine real estate and other one-of-a-kind Newport homes and businesses. Subsequently, he managed his own independent residential and commercial agencies where he trained and deployed hundreds of local agents while participating in several of the highest profile commercial sales in the area including Christie's Restaurant and Marina, the land lease and condo development at The Carnegie Abbey Club and the purchase of Newport's Opera House theater.

Paul was the proprietor of the White Horse Tavern, America's Oldest Tavern established in 1673. He was devoted to its preservation and recruited a talented staff to transition the restaurant from a special occasion venue to a welcoming tavern serving gourmet fare in a relaxed atmosphere.

ZARTARIAN, IRENE H. (MELKONIAN), 98, of Warwick, passed away peacefully on January 7, 2013. She was the beloved wife of the late George H. Zartarian. Mrs. Zartarian was the daughter of George and Mary (Hagopian) Melkonian, the loving mother of three sons, David and his wife Janet of Narragansett, Alan and his wife Marilyn of Warwick, and Robert of Branford, CT, and the devoted grandmother of Lori and Brian Zartarian, Alison and Adrien Hebert, and great-grandmother of Julian Cepeda. She was predeceased by her loving siblings Albert Melkonian, Harold Melkonian, and Florence Hedison. Irene was born in Rehoboth, MA in 1914. When she was very young, her family moved to Providence before they settled in the Shawomet section of Warwick where she grew up on the family farm. In 1931 she graduated from Warwick High School and worked as a switchboard operator at Warwick City Hall before her marriage in 1942. She and her husband lived in Warwick throughout their marriage, eventually settling in the Lakewood section where they raised their three sons. After her husband's untimely death in 1965, Irene was devoted to commemorating his memory, and did so through charitable donations. She established a student scholarship in his name which is given annually by the Armenian Student's Association, as well as a donation to St. Vartan Cathedral in New York City in his honor. As a widow, her devotion and life's work concentrated on raising her three teenage sons. Though she dedicated many hours as a volunteer worker at The Ocean State Center for Independent Living in Warwick, as well as the Rhode Island Hospital Gift Shop, her primary life work was centered on caring for her family and ensuring that her sons were successful in their life endeavors. She enjoyed traveling, especially her visit to Yerevan, Armenia, reading, knitting, hook-rugging, and playing cards and games of scrabble with her grandchildren, relatives and friends. She played pinochle for nearly seven decades with her dear friends, the "card group". She liked cooking, gardening, and entertaining people in her home for special occasions. She was a very giving person and would get upset with herself if she forgot to send a birthday, anniversary, or get well card to the people in her life. Irene was a life-long member of Sts. Sahag & Mesrob Armenian Apostolic Church of Providence and a sister in the Daughters of Vartan organization. In 1998, the Ladies Aid of the church honored her as "Mother of the Year". She was immensely proud of her Armenian heritage and instilled her feelings to her children and grandchildren at every opportunity. Her love of the Armenian Church was a guiding force in her life and she was happiest when attending Divine Liturgies on Sunday mornings. She generously donated a digital music system to the church in honor of her late husband, and her heart filled with pride and love when she would hear the beautiful chimes ring out from the steeple on Sunday mornings. Irene will be dearly missed by all. Relatives and friends wishing to pay their respects may do so during calling hours from 4:00-8:00 PM on Friday January 11th at Nardolillo Funeral Home & Crematory, 1278 Park Ave., Cranston, RI. Funeral services will be held from Sts. Sahag & Mesrob Armenian Apostolic Church at 10:00 AM on Saturday, January 12th followed by interment at North Burial Ground Cemetery, Providence.

Easter was Lottie's most special day of the year and her Polish Easter breakfasts were not to be missed. In its beginning years, Lottie regularly cooked wonderful dishes for My Brothers' Table.

For many years she and her husband could be found dancing on Saturday nights to the sounds of the big bands at the Nahant Knights of Columbus.
