To our dearest of friends, Anne, Dick, and Kate,

We have known Adam since he was born and we love him very much. We will never forget the many times we have shared. The birthday trip to the Laser show at Triton College with Adam comes to mind. We wanted to share a memory with Adam and that memory will live on. We only wish we had spend more recent time with him.

We will miss him so. Our hearts ache with sympathy for your loss. I know how very much Adam means to you all. He was a wonderful young man with a spirit that will shine on forever. He will always be in our hearts and minds. You can talk to us anytime about Adam and how you feel.

We love you all so much. Adam is in our prayers daily and so are the three of you.

Your Friends with Love,
Bob and Jayne Hasselroth

My heart goes out to Dick, Anne and Katie. I have not seen Adam for a number of years - but he was a beautiful and remarkable child who I am sure became a talented and great adult. We have no guarantees in life, and although Adam's life was too short, I am sure he lived it fully. ~ Susan Fiedor
