Ralph Mozian, age 89, of Cheshire passed away after a long illness on Sunday, September 25, 2016 at Elim Park Baptist Home. Ralph was born on July 27, 1927 in New York City, son of the late Martin and Sarah Mozian. He was the devoted husband of Alice Marie (Dempsey) Mozian for over 63 years, and with whom he shared a birthday.

In 1969, the Mozian’s relocated to Cheshire, and Ralph continued on with the company as their Production and Inventory Control Manager. Ralph enjoyed bowling, winning many trophies, golf, jig saw puzzles, cards and chess, which he used to play by mail. Ralph also volunteered his time working the polls on election days at Chapman School.
Mr. Mozian is the beloved father of Alicia Mozian of Orange; Chris Mozian and his wife, Laurie of Southington and Greg Mozian and his wife, Sue of Basalt, CO.
