Charles Steven ("Steve") Abrams died unexpectedly on May 16, 2016 at the age of 52. He was born on May 1, 1964 in Little Rock into a loving and close-knit family who are deeply mourning his tragic and sudden loss. He was preceded in death by his son, Forrest Abrams, who passed away in May of 2013. Steve is survived by a daughter, Alex Abrams, of Fayetteville; father and step-mother, Nash and Marilyn Abrams; his mother, Mary Frances Abrams; sister, Angela Fijo, her husband Mark Fijo and their two children, Ashley and Mark, and Ashley's daughter, Grace, all of Little Rock; brother, Tony Abrams, his wife, Gayle Abrams and their two sons, Trevor and Trent Abrams, of Frisco, Texas; sister-in-law, Jenny Abrams and her daughter, Bridget Abrams, of Little Rock; and his newest and best friend, his dog E.J.; girlfriend, Monica Reyes of Russellville; and many loving aunts, uncles and cousins. Graduating from college with a degree in environmental sciences and chemistry, Steve worked as an environmental scientist at a local environmental services company. His profession was an extension of his deep concern about the welfare and care of the environment and he constantly strove to do whatever he could to improve it. He was also an accomplished drummer and musician who had played with several local bands. His favorite band of all time was Rush and he was constantly inspired by their drummer, Neil Peart. Steve was a person who enjoyed the outdoors and was probably the happiest when he was camping or fishing. Blessed with an amazing sense of humor, he was a free-spirit with an amazing heart whose legacy of doing anything for those he cared about won't soon be forgotten. Visitation will be Friday, May 20 from 6-8 p.m. at Little Rock Funeral Home, 8801 Knoedl Ct. (NW corner I-630 and Barrow Rd.). Services will be Saturday, May 21 at 1 p.m. at the funeral home.
