Solomon Surabian

Worcester – Solomon Surabian, 76, passed away Friday, October 10, 2025 after a long courageous ALS battle with his loving family by his side, peacefully.

He leaves his two daughters, Tina Georgopoulos and her husband Steve of East Hampton, NY and Jennifer Bachour of Worcester; a brother, Andrew Surabian and his wife Joanne of Shrewsbury; two sisters Linda Michalak of Worcester and Nancy Donovan-Kaminski and her husband Joe of Worcester; a sister-in-law, Thomasine Surabian of Worcester; eight grandchildren, Joseph Surabian and his wife Flor, Elias Bachour and his wife Christine, Kyriakos, Stathios, Nikos, Tiffany-Scarlett, Abella, and Logan, along with two great-granddaughters Nairi Estella and Gemma Eloise, and numerous nieces and nephews and friends, whom he loved. He would want us to mention his son-in-laws Roger Bachour and Joseph Breault, the mother of his four children, Linda Surabian, and his home nursing team including Kate, Linda, Vera and Hilda who was part of his loving support system.

He was predeceased by his two sons, Michael Solomon and Joseph Solomon, and a brother Sarkis Surabian. He was born in Worcester, son of Harry and Annie (Kustigian) Surabian. He graduated from Commerce High School and Worcester Industrial Technical Institute where he started his plumbing career.

Sol as he was known by family and friends was the owner and operator of S. Surabian Plumbing and Heating for over 50 years before retiring soon after his ALS diagnosis.

He lived a full beautiful life. He was a devoted father and grandfather, he loved his family, a man of faith, funny, handsome, loved summers at Old Orchard Beach, loved to cook, loved “Armenian Power”, scratch tickets, sports and anything he could place a bet on, preferably dogs and horses. He would never say no to a night at the race track or the casino or helping family and friends with their plumbing needs. He fought a long and courageous battle of ALS, like a warrior, with his loving family by his side. We called it Solomon’s Hope.

Please join the family to remember Sol on Friday, October 17, 2025 at the Armenian Church of Our Saviour, 87 Salisbury Street, Worcester. Calling hours are from 10am – 11am with his funeral following immediately after at 11am. Burial will be at Hope Cemetery.
