Abby is a wonderful girl who lost her life to a brain tumor in 2012 at the age of 10.
Abby’s entire life was full of happiness and smiles. If your mood was less than happy, Abby had the ability to change that. She was a selfless girl. Her friends were more important than her possessions as she would gladly give her friends a toy that she liked just to see them smile. She saw her teachers not as taskmasters but as human beings. When the flowers of spring burst to life, Abby would make it a priority to pick them for her teachers, just to see them smile. Kindness is what Abby produced.
It is a terrible loss but her mission continues!
