Staffan Aberg

Hallo,

My name is Karin Aberg contacting you from Stockholm, Sweden. I am writing to you because of your class reunion coming up in July this year. My husband Staffan Aberg was an AFS exchange  student at Moscow High School in 1964-65 and graduated with your class in 1965. Staffan passed away in October 2003. He died of cancer and was only 57 years old. While googling on his name today your site about your reunion came up and I thought I would give you some information about Staffan.

Staffan had a very good year in Moscow staying with the Dr LaRele Stephens family who he had contact with through his life. He got the taste for international life after his year in the US and evently became a Swedish diplomate joining the Swedish Foreign Office (State Department). He served for 32 as a diplomate in various countries in Europe and in Africa and his last posting was as the Swedish ambassador to Brazil in South America. He was married to me since 1971 and we got three daughters and two grandchildren (twin boys) and one more to come very shortly. Unfortunately the kids will never know their grandfather. He would have made a wonderful grandpa!

I hope you will have a real nice reunion!

Best regards from Karin Aberg
