"Word has been received that a local World War II legend has passed away.

He participated in the Bataan Death March and was a prisoner in the death camps at the hands of his Japanese captors..................."

"Christmas Eve of 1941, with a very heavy heart, 28 year old Sergeant Abraham left his wife and three daughters in Manila as the Japanese Imperial Army closed in on the city.
For the next four months on Bataan, the 31st Regiment fought a seemingly hopeless, but valiant battle against overwhelming, Japanese air, sea and land forces. Totally surrounded, without re-supply, the 31st was overpowered by tank cannons and small arms. ................."
RIP Soldier.
