My dear friends..
=20
Today is a most difficult day, the day after Chuck Abraham's sudden =
passing.
Chuck was such a wonderful man, and touched us all so dearly. He was =
not
only a talented producer, director, actor and singer, but was also a
well-rounded Christian man who was ALWAYS smiling, and always "half =
full"..
=20
I am utterly speechless at his loss, having been his best friend for =
several
years now. He was my neighbor up the street, my goom-ba, and my =
brother. I
can not even begin to tell you how many times we have laughed so hard at
things that it brought us to tears. Unfortunately today the tears are
brought on for different reasons.
=20
There were two kinds of people in Chuck's life - those who adored him, =
and
those who didn't understand him. Chuck was always confident, and could =
talk
his way our of a paper bag if he had to. He truly had the gift of gab =
which
is likely why he had such a passion for the theatre. What words Chuck
lacked in vocabulary, he made up. And the funniest thing is, unless you
knew him well, you probably wouldn't know that he was talking himself =
out of
a corner.
=20
The memories are thick and full, and the future will be most difficult =
for
those in his life. He was en excellent family man, never late for =
dinner,
and always knew how to keep cool. He was a rock, very stable and
unwaivering in his views.
=20
Chuck did not have health coverage since he and his sister's satellite
computer support business became victim to today's economy and corporate
politics. A support account will be set up at a local bank for any
charitable assistance for his wife and two young children, please be =
advised
as updates will be posted in this medium.
=20
Funeral arrangements have not yet been finalized, and information is to
follow. =20
=20
God speed, Shusshy-Lou, see you soon.
=20
Love,
=20

Friend, Brother, and Mentor
