Abner, I sure am going to miss you, Old Friend! I met you when I first came to Lovett school at the age of 15 and we became fast friends! You were always popular and everyone admired your athletic ability but I most admired your always being honest and loyal, the best traits in a person! We somehow made it together thru high school and remained close friends thru the years. I was there when you had your first date w/ Jan and shared lots of life´s adventures w/ you! RIPeace my friend, you have...

Jan, Abe & Scott, I have spent the last week thinking about Abner and what a great guy he was. Some 25 years ago I was a new salesman here in Atlanta when Abner was the first customer I called on. I knew after we spent 30 minutes talking sports and Atlanta, I found someone special. He might not have known at the time but he was a great mentor to me. The many memories and times spent talking out back in the warehouse will not be forgotten. I will miss him dearly and pray that he is at peace....

Abner was one of the best. We were in the same 7th grade class at Lovett and remained friends forever. Abner cared so much about all his friends and made sure we got together with some regularity. He and his wife, Jan, were perfect for each other and threw "can't miss" Christmas parties. I will miss him and was so happy to have known him.
