Not sure what to say?

Aloha Daniel, Kenan and Susannah from Libby Burke & Brad Robison (together 10 years and living on the Big Island of Hawai'i): we heard from Jay Robison the news about Adam from the Seattle Times. We deeply feel your loss. We each have our own memories of Adam when we were at Hidden Valley Camp together; I (Libby) remember him as a good friend and intellectual playmate--someone I looked up to and relied upon to keep things interesting. I'll always appreciate that he turned me on to Kurt...

Adam was one of the first people I met at Reed College, and he enchanted me with his brilliance and his wit. He had the most wonderful spindly handwriting and he was a great postcard writer. I adored him and learned a huge amount from him. Later on I lived across the street from him in North Beach. Adam was completely ALIVE and inspiring, and I am very very sorry that he had died and send my best wishes to everyone who loved Adam and who is missing him.

Please know my heart is with you all. May your cherished memories and the warm embrace of your family comfort you in the days to come. Jay sends his love as well.
Julie

My condolences to the Block family. I had Adam in music class in the sixth grade at I.I. Stevens many, many years ago! I have fond memories of Adam. May God be with you all during this time of sorrow. Sincerely, Wilho Saari, teacher at Stevens from 1960-1966.
