My deepest condolences to Adam's family and closest friends during this sorrowful time. I was fortunate enough to finally meet Adam face to face during a visit to Ft. Campbell last fall before departing the company. He was an excellent peer and mentor and truly the only one who directly understood the stresses and struggles I was dealing with throughout that time. There were many phone calls and venting sessions to each other during that time and I was glad to call him a friend. The aviation community, the MWO community, and the world are all a lesser place without him. I know the Lord has him safely now, but the world is darker without him here.
