FLORENCE GRANT LENHARD, 89,
died Dec. 24, 2008.
She was born April 11, 1919, in
Detroit, where she resided until 1973,
when she moved to Pompano Beach,
Fla. She moved to Sandy Springs, Ga.,
in 2004 and was a resident of Huntcliff
Summit. She was a sweet, kind and
generous person; and she will be dear-
ly missed by all who knew her.
Mrs. Lenhard is survived by chil-
dren, Bob and Bunny Lenhard of
Sandy Springs and Joan Hershberger
of Wilmington, Del.; grandchildren,
Steve and Wendy Lenhard of Marietta,
Ga., Elizabeth Lenhard and Paul
Donsky of Atlanta, Ga., Jeffrey Lenhard
and Lisa Perlstein of Decatur, Ga.,
Hospice Hero, but by no means
are his contributions small. Once
a week Abba and his Bubbe
Shaindy visit with Clara, a 97-
year-old palliative care patient
who was reticent to invite adult
social workers into her home.
Unlike adults, Abba communi-
cates with Clara by looking at
pictures, playing BINGO or just
sharing a snack. Every visit ends
with a hug and a kiss. "Abba's
visits totally change Clara's
demeanor and remind her of
younger, happier times," says
Shaindy. "Abba has awakened
her spirit, so now Clara doesn't
feel like she's at the end. Abba's
visits give her a new beginning."
Adam Hershberger of Philadelphia,
Pa.; great-grandchildren Julie, Brian
and Adam Lenhard, Mira and Talia
Donsky; sisters-in-law, Rita Grant and
Ruth Grant of California; numerous

University, where he was a member of
