Our deepest sympathies go out to the entire family. Adam was a gentle, friendly, smiling soul who always had a positive word for everyone. I especially will hold the memory of him hunting in the woods and being so proud of his catch. He was a special person who transferred his personality to his great family. He will be missed by us and many. Hugs to Annie, Linda and Eddie.
