Abel was an incredible human being whose presence brought joy and positivity to everyone around him. Over the years, we had the pleasure of hearing his captivating stories, each reflecting his zest for life and his passion for sharing knowledge and happiness.

A devoted customer of our restaurant, Hubs in Skokie, Abel became a cherished member of our community. His cheerful spirit and unwavering optimism brightened our days. I, Victoria, will especially miss picking up his phone call where I could simply say, "Abel, how are you?" And hearing him chuckle and asking, "how´d you know it was me?" His warm voice, engaging stories, and delightful company were truly a gift.

Our heartfelt condolences go out to Judy, his beloved wife. Abel was a wonderful person who touched our lives in countless ways, and he will be deeply missed by all of us at Hubs.

Abel was the best mentor that I could ever wish for.
I was so blessed to have him teach me not only sales lessons but life lessons.
He always told me be the first to arrive in the last to leave!
God blessed Able and he blessed everyone!

Dear Judy, David and I were so saddened to read Abel's obit.
He always had a ready smile for us. I think you two were married as long as we (64 years). We should count our blessings but grief and mourning will take center now. Sending strength and our love. Brenda and David

Abel was a wonderful human being and he played a key role in my life and indeed the life of my family. He built a great company and was kind and generous to all that knew him. I was fortunate to be a part of his company and I will always cherish his friendship and the countless memories we made over our many years together. Abel will be missed but his legacy within the company and community at large, and what he meant to me will never be forgotten.
