He was deported with his parents and hundreds of Armenian Bitlis people. On the way the father was taken apart with other Armenian men and he was shot in front of the women and children. His mother died a few days after. Left alone he was taken by a Kurd to a village named Aveyni. Garabed became the shepherd of the Kurd. Lately, an Armenian passed there and told him that there are still Armenians alive in Syria and that there was a reception house in Aleppo open to those who want to join their nation and their people. Garabed fled and came immediately to us.
