Mrs. Haberman .My prayers are with you during this time. I LOVED Mr Haberman. There is so much about Mr Haberman that I know helped shape my life and I am so thankful for that. I remember being a teenager and seeing Colonel Haberman in uniform and I remember how much I admired and respected his service to our country. He loved the Army ,West Point Football but most of all he loved God and his family. I am so thankful that son Fred and myself became lifelong friends. Mr Haberman was so unselfish, so humble, a man who truly was all about others .Whenever I was with the Haberman family it was clear that he so much enjoyed Peg and the kids. We would all sit downstairs during a Christmas reunion and listen for hours as Mr Haberman would lead the laughter and joy with his passion and enthusiasm..It didn’t matter what the subject was Mr Haberman and Peg and the kids would join in and have a blast.It is such a cool feeling being around the Haberman family..God Bless You all
Dear Peg, Linda informed us about Fred’s passing and we were very sorry to learn about it. Although we haven’t kept in touch over the years, we have often thought of you both and the good times the 6 of us had when we were together Please know you have our deepest sympathy. Sincerely, Trudi and Jim
