Abe was the greatest! He had so much energy and so many stories to tell about his hunting and his trip to South Dakota. I know Doug really enjoyed the time working and talking with Abe while they were on the Indian Reservation. Doug couldn't believe how hard he worked for someone of his age. He will be greatly missed. We loved everything about him. I'm glad his suffering is over and he can now enjoy heaven. God Bless!

This is an amazing family who has always pulled together in difficult times. Losing my father at such a young age was very hard, but having such wonderful uncles to serve as father figures and such special men in my life has made an incredible difference to me. I know that each one of them know how important they are to me. I will miss Uncle Abe and love him very much and I will be here for all of you during this difficult time. I do feel a sense of peace is among us as we all know he was greeted with open arms from so many that we love. My love to you all, Kathy
