Abe, I continue to ache for your presence at home. You brought energy, inspiration and joy to our home. Every time I look into Gavin's eyes I am heartbroken for everyone that misses your beauty.
May 7, 2014
Abe,
Your infectious laughter, smile, and excitement for life touched us all more than anyone can imagine. I was truly blessed to have been your friend, and to share in the memories made with you at SVC. Once a bearcat, always a bearcat. My thoughts and prayers are with your family always, and I can promise I won't forget to smile. May you rest easy my friend, and watch over us.
Love and Miss you always,

There are not many guys like Abe out there.. A true gentleman, a kind and deep soul, an open and loving heart, a smile that could change your whole day and a hug that let you know he deeply cared.. His genuine character was uncanny and is something this world desperately needs.
Abe - I feel incredibly lucky to have grown to know you over the years and will miss you terribly. The lives you have touched, including mine, will live better because of you. Besides being a neighbor and friend, you will always be an inspiration.
Ann, Mike, Hana & Gavin -
You all are such remarkable and wonderful people, it is so obvious why Abram was the way he was. I am deeply sorry for your loss and I just don't understand why something like this would happen to such an incredible person and an amazing family. We will all miss him so much, but know that every person who met Abe was touched by his beautiful spirit forever. He will never be forgotten and he has done something in 23 years that some people never accomplish in a lifetime: He has made the lives of those who knew him better.

Dear Abram, Ann, and Mike,

Dear Ann, Mike and Family,
My sincere and deepest sympathy, I am truly sorry for your loss. My thoughts are with your family at this very difficult time. Unfortunately for me, my last memory of Abram is the Easter egg hunt at your home when he was just a small boy. Abram was so beautiful! It appears he grew into a beautiful young man, a part of both his parents, and will continue to flourish in heaven above, beautifully.
A Guardian Angel eternally watching over..

Abe, your face is the last I would think to see attached to a tragedy like this. I enjoyed working with you, your infectious laugh and bucket hat during Steeler camp. Heaven has gained and angel and the SVC lacrosse family was blessed to have you as a member. Once a Bearcat, always a Bearcat.
