Not sure what to say?

The "Breakfast Club" story reminded me of when I was a very young man in a new suit at one of those early Breakfast Club meetings. I approched a local business legend and attempted to engage him in conversation, but he barely would even acknowledge my presense. I got about the treatment you would get if you met the president of the United States in a handshake line. Then, "Uncle Adolf" walked over and put his arm around me and told the gentleman, "I see you have met my friend John." Needless...

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

What an incredible legacy Adolf has left. He and my father were partners for many years and one could not have a more trustworthy, kind, not to mention brilliant businessman to work with. All of our best to BR and Rodney.

Adolph was an outstanding individual
and was always a genuine friend.
I got to know him years ago at the Houston Realty Breakfast Club and had
the pleasure of being with him many

a County President for a group of banks.

Dear B.R. and family,
Thinking of you and of Adolph's beautiful smile.

Adolph was a terrific human being. Very few people accomplished what he accomplished, and even fewer did it with the quiet dignity that Adolph exhibited. I hope that Bettiruth, Devon, Lynn and Rodney can share with others, the incredible life of a man who never sought the limelight. His will be big shoes to fill. Elliott Bossin
