RIP Alex Azarian

[sassy69]

His wife Nga posted on FB that he passed away suddenly on Jan 24, leaving behind two children. Alex was one of the people I met when I started competing in California and had e-met him years ago. Such a great guy and such a terrible, terrible loss.

If you aren't familiar with him, you might be familiar with his wife's photography at CA shows (at least in the mid 2000's). I think she was the official photographer at at least some of Lindsay's shows (sorry, trying to remember back a number of years when I was new to the Bay Area).

RIP Alex.

Awful news. I met Alex a few times...he used to do a close friend's diet. Alex seemed like a very decent guy and had nothing but passion for bodybuilding.

Alex was still a young guy. Anyone know what happened?

RIP Alex

Mid 40's I heard, very young. Any details on cause of death?

Haven't seen anything. Nga requested respect for her family's privacy at the moment.

Too young. Too soon.

No amateur got ripped like Alex. If you have seen his before picture he went far. I kept thinking he is going to turn Pro for sure but he missed the mark in his qualifiers. I actually contacted him about coaching about a year ago. I think he was a teacher by trade if I remember right?

Rest in Pease Alex.

I know he was posting on some of the boards I was on at least thru 2009 but I don't recall much in the way of anything more recent than that.

He was known for coming in peeled.

Here's an IronMan Mag photo shoot w/ Alex in 2008:

Very sad news RIP.

I am shocked. My jaw dropped when I read this. Soo sad . My prayers go out to his family.

I found this site where you can donate to assist his family with funeral and living expenses. I goes without saying that they should NOT have to be worrying about funeral expenses for a 45 year old husband and father. Please donate!!

Alex was the most humble nicest guy... Always willing to help out others. I'm saddened to hear of his death
