It´s been a long time but the kaoud brothers made a large impact on me. Fred was a great guy. Abe, me and Fred traveled for the rug auctions. I was 19. Abe you thought me a lesson that traveled with me through the years. Figure out how to do a job if there is no one around. Thank you for that. I tell my kids to figure things out. I wish I could have made it Monday night but I was in New Hampshire. Give my condolences to the family. Abe, you taught me a lot.
