I think of Adam often. When the family was down for the summer or the Holidays and I was working at Skate Country, he would come to the Snack Bar and ask for his "special frozen Mountain Dew" drink. I would go to the office and he would be working on his drawings. He was a really special boy, he will be dearly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.
