Not sure what to say?

I haven't even known Mr. Adrian for a full year but I could tell instantly he was an amazing man! He was always smiling and happy spoke to me every time he saw me. I miss his smiling face and wave when I come home. Funny story every time I would do my dishes i could watch his tv made my dish time more enjoyable plus if the tv was on I knew he was ok. I would bring him home cooked food from time to time. I wish I would have been able to know him better. I would have loved to hear "His Story" I...

Heavy thoughts and love to the family and friends of Adrian. He was a very kind, honest, and thoughtful friend. I will miss him greatly including hearing all of his historical stories of American war and life as he saw so much change over his lifetime. I feel honored to have had him in my life.

Mr. Mead has been a dear neighbor who always had a kind word for everyone. He spent many hours talking with our kids and grandkids and will be greatly missed.

Dad was proud to be a veteran of the Battle of the Bulge and shared stories often about the war in Europe. He was one of the original founder of the 334th Battalion annual reunions that started in 1957. He hosted six reunions in St. Louis and attended 52 of the 54 reunions held. He was dedicated to his family and his friends. He will be sorely missed by all.

Dad loved a good laugh and was always ready to share stories and jokes.

Prayers and sympathy to the family of a dear man. - Sue Jackson
