Adam Wetherbee Childs

Dear Lee and JoAnne,
I'm quite shocked to have just heard this overwhelmingly saddest of news. I am so so sorry for the both of you, words cannot express the devastation you're both certainly enduring . Although I've been away for a few years now, I'd typically make it a point to find (musically) or accidentally cross paths with Lee when home (such as this summer), and it's been quite sometime since I've seen JoAnne. I was always happy to hear of Lee's reports on Adam from his dad,...

May your soul be a peace. May your family somehow find the strength to go on.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of Adam's friends and family members. From one CCA family to another.
Sincerely, Annaliese '06 Liza '08 and Zack '13 Heussler

I saw this beautifully written tribute and was moved very very much by it and felt so saddened by the loss of a young man I did not know. He was very very loved. I am so sorry to all the people who are missing this beautiful boy tonight. Godspeed Adam.

adam, so saddening to hear about your untimely death. not gonna be the same not getting to see you at every camp bisco and new years run anymore although i know you'll be there raging with all of us. I remeber when i first met you on the railing of camp bisco 7 i believe right before the day set and from there everytime we say each other we talked. very glad to have known you. My thoughts and prayers go out to your family and friends who knew you best. R.I.P. brother

To Elliot& JoAnne,

"Ascension"
And if I go,while you're still here......
Know that I live on,
Vibrating to a different measure
Behind a thin veil you cannot see through.
You will not see me,
So you must have faith.
I wait the time when we can soar together again,
Both aware of each other.
Until then,live your life to its fullest.
And when you need me,
Just whisper my name in your heart,
......I will be there.

I do not know your son, but his thoughtfully written obituary was so beautifully done, I felt compelled to leave a message. As the mother of an only son and child, I can not imagine the pain you feel, but will pray that you can someday find solice with your memories of Adam.

~ A mom who is praying for you all....

Lord, help us to stay close to you. We wonder why and how could this happen. Help us to lean on you during this time of unanswered questions. Help us to trust that you know the way.
