I can't believe it's been 2 years since you left us :( I miss your sense of humor, your smile and you always had jokes gramps and always knew how to make me laugh. I'm also missing your famous Salsa it was the best wish I could remember how to make it cause you showed me every time you made it but just didn't stick in my head. Well gramps I know you are in a much better place no pain or your not suffering anymore! All my memories with you I will cherish for a lifetime. May you Rest In Paradise until we meet again.....I love and miss you so so much

To the Adams Family: My heartfelt sympathies go out to the family and friends during this difficult time. I hope that the promise in 1 Thessalonians 4:14 can bring comfort. Knowing that there's a hope for the ones we have lost in death can be so reassuring.
