John Bryden Abrams

John Bryden Abrams. Jan and Stefan Abrams are devastated to announce the death of their beloved son, John (Jed) Bryden Abrams, who lost his will to live on August 30, 2012. He will be deeply missed by his brother Roy, sister Cleo, sister-in law, Evelyn, brother-in-law Brian and his adoring nieces and nephews, Eric, Isla, Lila, Kiki, and Owen, as well as his uncles Mark and Richard, aunt Nancy, his partner Amanda Mills and much extended family and friends. With his handsome good looks and engaging personality, Jed represented all that was beautiful, tender, unpredictable and sometimes perplexing. He enthusiastically pursued the unorthodox with his martial arts talents, yet had an incredible business savvy for the financial markets. He will be missed by all who had the privilege of spending time with his unique persona and personality. A graveside service will be held in Topeka, Kansas and a memorial service will be announced in New York. It is our hope that donations in his memory be sent to the Brain and Behavior Research Foundation, 60 Cutter Mill Road, Suite 404, Great Neck, New York 11201.

John Bryden Abrams. Roy and Evelyn Abrams, bereaved brother and sister-in-law to Jed Abrams, wish to express their profound sense of loss and sorrow over Jed's untimely passing. As those who knew him well were aware, Jed's core self consisted of an infinite tenderness and vulnerability. Often most honestly expressed with the nieces and nephews he adored, as well as the animals he rescued and kept over the years, it was a pure spring of lovingness we feel privileged to have known and traumatized to have lost. Our prayers for your soul, brother, we will always love you.
