Mr. Abraham Graham, 75, of Lake City expired Saturday November 20, 2010 in the V.A. Medical Center after an extended illness.
He was born on September 13, 1935 to the late Julius Osborn and Ollie Mae Graham in Dowling Park , Florida. The family moved to Lake City in 1942, and made it their permanent home. Abraham grew up a quiet and gentle young man, with a love for all sports. He graduated from Richardson High School in 1954. Because of values instilled in him by his parents, and his own sense of patriotism, Abraham enlisted in the United States Navy in 1955, where he served for many years.
Always a very compassionate man, Abraham was interested in a variety of local and global issues, and was an avid reader. One of his proudest moments came in 2008, when he was able to vote for, and see Barack Obama become President of the United States.
Abraham leaves to cherish his memory a loving daughter, Ms. Shiremeasha Crusaw of Gainesville, Florida, two dedicated sisters, Mrs. Evelyn Joyner of Pompano Beach, Florida and Mrs. Doris Tooten of Live Oak, Florida, a loving and devoted brother, Mr. Alfonso Graham of Lake City, Florida, three beloved generations of nieces, nephews and a host of dear friends.
