Abram Jude Nance

Abram Jude Nance, of Bowersville, moved in with Jesus on Friday, June 15, 2018, in his mommy's loving arms. Abram was a long-awaited promise from God, and was born to his proud parents, Brandon and Erynn (Kirk) Nance, on April 9th, 2018.

He was born with a heart of a warrior. He spent his days in the NICU at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, touching the lives of everyone whom he encountered. He was born to change the world and he definitely left an amazing legacy. He taught everyone so much about perseverance and determination as he fought so hard to be able to go home one day. Abram loved his pacifier, being swaddled, and making faces that would pierce one's soul. Thousands followed his journey, though most never met him. Due to his breathing tube, his cry was never heard, but his roar could be heard around the world! He left his imprint on many hearts, including his parents. Though his life was short-lived, he had much purpose. He brought people together, and people closer to God. He had a fighting spirit and a sweet smile. He was the perfect mix of his parents—both stubborn and compassionate. He is dearly loved and will be surely missed on earth, but the promise of heaven brings much hope to all who had the honor of following his life's journey.

Abram's tribe includes his parents; his brother, Aiden, and sister, Hannah; his grandparents: Robert and Linda Kirk, Jr., and Christina and Darrin Nance; great-grandparents, and a plethora of aunts, uncles, and cousins.

He is preceded in death by his maternal grandmother, Jacque Kirk.

Memorial contributions may be made, in Abram's name, to Cincinnati Childrens Hospital.

Friends may call on Wednesday, June 20, 2018 from 5-8pm, at A House of Prayer in Xenia (282 Stelton Road, Xenia 45385), where a funeral service will be held on Thursday, at 10am.  Burial to follow at Woodlawn Cemetery, Bowersville.
