Abby was a special precious soul even when she was a schooler at Redeemer. She was also so very kind and happy! I had the pleasure of running into her again while she worked at St. E, and she was still exactly the same as I remembered her.. Anyone she who was blessed to have crossed paths with her sweet soul is a better person for it!!

Mr Steve and Mrs Kim, I am a coworker/friend of Abbie. I had worked with her ever since she was here with us. Know Abby and her husband.. She is a precious woman, a nice coworker and has a beautiful smile. I came to know very late about her demise, i was perplexed and saddened. Still breaks my heart thinking about her. Definitely we miss her. You parents please take care of each other and your daughter is still with you closer to your hearts watching from above. My condolence from the very bottom of my heart. Continued to say prayers for you both and may our Abby's souls rest in paradise.
