Patricia, So sorry to find this about Ben. I just happened upon the obit. I am a Mississippi Abney cousin. I found Ben several years ago while researching our Mississippi Abney roots. Our family lived across the street from Ben's grandfather, Paul Joshua Abney and my grandfather's first cousin. Please give your children a hug for me as I felt so connected to your husband and their father during our two-three telephone conversations. Prayers all around. In time feel free to contact me: rhabney@yahoo.com.
Family and friends are coming together online to create a special keepsake. Every memory left on the online obituary will be automatically included in this book.
