~ The Fig Tree ~  / Dana Abdelhadi (Wife)
Good Morning Habibi Abdo,
                Guess what I woke up thinking about this morning ?..." The Fig Tree ".  Remember the fig tree outside your bedroom window on Grange St.  So many years ago, when we first met I would come over to your house and you would pick figs off of that tree just for me.   They were the most delicious figs I have ever ate.  I close my eyes and I can still see you taking the figs off of that tree.  One day soon, I plan to make a garden for you and in this garden I will plant a Fig Tree.  " The Fig " was always your favorite tree.  I remember the one you planted when we lived on Reedy Branch,  the one that Cee-Cee bought for you as a gift.  You watered and nutured that tree like a newborn baby,  but for some reason it would not grow and eventually died.  
Another memory from Grange St. is the lemon Ice tea you would make for me when I'd come over.  You would say " Would you like some Icy Tea ".  You were so special to me Abdo,  the cute little ways you would pronounce some words was so amusing at times and it just made me love you even more.  God knows you are one in a million...!  I can't wait until i see you again...I miss you more than I can express in words, habibi !  I love you...forever my Habibi !

Sunday Morning  / Dana Abdelhadi (Wife)
Hi Habibi Abdo,
      Just sitting here thinking about you and some of the precious moments we shared together.  I remember a Sunday morning, waking up before the kids got up.  We were laying beside each other on the sofa, and you were holding me.  I remember the warmth of your skin touching mine...and how peaceful we were....the house was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.  We didn't talk alot that morning,  we just held each other and drifted in and out of sleep.  The feeling alone was worth a thousand words....we did'nt need to say anything.
After a little while,  Zachie woke up and came walking down the hall and I remember the first words he said was " Good Morning,  Daddy "  and you sat up and looked at him and said " Good Morning, Son,  can daddy have a hug " ?
It's moments like those, that i wish i could freeze in time.  I keep asking God,  please take me back to yesterday.. !   If only I could go back to yesterday !!!!
I love you Abdo,  the kids and me miss you so much.  There is never a day that goes by, that we don't sit and talk about you.  I always ask them to tell me a good memory of daddy...and they still remember....thank god they still remember.  
God be with you always Habibi...one day I will see you again.  One Day !

                                 forever loving you,

What a wonderful site  / Jill (friend of Dana )
Dana you have made such a wonderful tribute to Abdo.  I cannot get over how beautiful your family is.  I just want to say that I saw that he loved the movie Rocky.  Kirk and I went to see Rocky II on our first date.  He also loved Michael Jordan and the Fresh Prince (but Sanford & Son was his favorite).  Thinking of you and the kids tonight.  You are strong to have come this far and through so much.  You are truly and inspiration.  Take care, Jill Close

thank you  / Jill Alford (friend of Dana )
Although I didn't know your dear Abdo, I'm sure he must have been such a wonderful husband to you.  I really appreciate your visiting my Kirk's site and checking in on me.  I cannot imagine how you feel losing your husband and children's father so very young.  I know this sounds cliche, but Dana you must be incredibly strong.  Your positive influence on your family really comes through your memorial to your husband.  He must be so happy and proud of you.   Thank you for the angel husband picture.  That one is really nice and sweet.  I love it.  Thinking of you and your beautiful family this weekend.

Love and prayers,

Jill Close

Purple Hair  / Dana (Abdo's Wife )
Hi Habibi Abdo, ( my love Abdo )

        I was on my way to the Ymca today when suddenly i remembered the night i tried to dye my hair and it turned purple.  I can still see your face when i hysterically called you into the bedroom to show you, and my god...that laugh of yours...you were about to roll when you looked at my hair and saw it was purple.  The first thing you said was " Get on the phone and call Stephanie, maybe she'll know what to do."  It was 1:00 a.m. and i frantically got on the phone and called her, only to get laughed at some more.  I can look back and laugh now, even more so, because you were so tickled by it.  I'm glad i was able to give you a good laugh, sorry it was at your expense because it cost you $170.00 to fix my hair.  Sorry sweetheart, i was only trying to look beautiful for you.  
God bless you Abdo, thank you for all the wonderful memories.
I love you so, so , much !
