Dear Barbara, Augie, and AJ,
From our family to yours - we are so sorry for your loss. As neighbors, we led different lives but saw each other often throughout the days and years. I remember many times seeing Adam at home, going out with friends, and on the job site at Severson Manor - basically seeing him in snapshots growing up through the years.
I hope that your fond memories of his fun loving nature help ease the pain of your loss.

Our thoughts are with you.

I'm sorry for your loss. You know I'll always consider y'all family as much as I did him. He was my best friend and probably the only one I'd call a brother. I remember my mom used to call him her "weekend son" cos he stayed the night so much. I don't think I'll be able to make it up there, but I'd love to see you the next time I visit Mike. This loss has left a huge gash in my heart, but I will never stop thanking God that I was blessed with the friendship of Adam Jones. Rest easy brother.
