Dear Mr. Abraham, George, Vincent, Judy, & Family,
My sincerest condolences to each of you.
Mom was the sweetest lady to me and I will hold onto this memory of her always...
One day many years ago I ran into her dressed so cute wearing a beret while shopping at Target. Reintroducing myself to her she smiled that smile of hers that I always remembered from when we were kids...whether she was was separating George and Vincent fighting or running after Georgie, she always "smiled" that beautiful smile of hers. (Years ago one of my students said to me that they knew I loved them because I smiled even when I scolded them...I remembered where i learmed that smile...Thank you Mrs. Abraham...I see that same smile in your children...We smile even when we are in pain as we are now...it is our way of dealing with life...we smile thru adversity...we know it passes...)
I am so proud of this family and how they cared for Mom...I know that what you did you did out of love...May that be Mom's Legacy as she sleeps with the angels and is at peace.
The Abraham house was a second home to me...the sounds, the cooking, the laughter, the play...all are like a soundtrack that never ends...
I thank you...I love you...May Mom be forever our smiling angel to inspire and lead us...
