Kiyo Abbe
Kiyo Abbe 81, of Star Tannery, VA passed away on Sunday, October 6, 2024, at her residence in Star Tannery, VA.
Ms. Abbe was born in Sao Paulo, Brazil on February 14, 1943, the daughter of the late Kito and Kiwa Abbe. In addition to her parents she is preceded in death by her son Edward Chin of Medina, TN. Ms. Abbe graduated from high school in Brazil and went on to college to study to be an X-ray Technician and went on to work at Lenox Hill Hospital. She loved her family very much, spoiling the grandchildren was her specialty. Outdoors, cooking, feeding the cats and watching the birds in the yard were her favorite things to do. Giving the shirt off her back and helping people in need is what she took her pride in. Seeing someone’s smile meant the world to her knowing that she helped someone to have a better day. She loved to send birthday and Christmas cards to all the grandchildren. She will be missed by all.
Survivors include her best friend and long-time companion of 45 years Dennis Cary, one son Elwis Chin (Barbara), five grandchildren Amanda, Brandon, Tyler, Tiarralynn, Tamaran, her siblings Kimiko Koyano, Shinji Abe, Setsuko Ishii, Elizabeth Tieko Midorikawa, Marcos Yoshiharu Kudo, along with numerous nieces, nephews, and other relatives and friends.
Private service will take place at a later date.
