Russell Abraham Obituary
Russ was born in Portland, OR and lived in Redding since 1961. He worked for Calaveras Cement Co. and took pride in his job as Personnel Manager and Safety Engineer retiring after 43 years.
Dad loved sports and he played and coached baseball for years and was an avid golfer. He dearly loved his wife, Marcella, who died in 2004 after 60 years of marriage. He gave his love, his time and his support to his children Nita, Nolan and Nevin, his grandchildren and his great-grandchildren. His family was everything to him. We will hold him in our hearts forever and miss him so very much.
