My heart broke when I heard the news of Adam. I'm truly very sorry , He was a kind and loving soul. Someone that had the biggest laugh and smile! Adam and I had many ......adventures together. Him, always the protector and myself, always showing us the way and getting us home safe. There was never a dull moment from laughing so hard to play fighting in the funniest places and people thinking it was real. Can you image people watching him and me fight!? He gave me a nickname for when I was feisty "The Tazor", which my Mom stills calls me to this day. When anyone hears her say it the first time she goes into the story of how Adam gave me the name. My kids have also learn the term " Too much rock for one hand" and sign. He will be missed and honestly never forgot about. He was so comforting to me, like a piece of home walking around with me. I'm very sad that I won't be able to make it today. Sending light and love to all the family and anyone that knew him!
