Surviver Accounts

Edward Racoubian has old, white/grey hair with a receding hair line and mustache. He is old and has wrinkled white skin.  Based on the picture, I can assume he felt very uncomfortable about the story, as he looks sad in the picture do to a slightly opened mouth and eye brows going upward together. Also, he says that he had lost his entire family in the genocide, which would be saddening to anyone. I think that, though he survived, he would have had a hard time readjusting the society after such loss, as even now, many years later, he is still sadden by the events that took place, and he does not mention his life after he either escaped or was let go. Since he was most likely weakened by the experience, h would probably had faced challenges finding work and normality after the genocide ended.
