Dear Geri,
We were so sorry to hear about Art's passing...we always admired and had enormous respect that great man. 33 years ago Art built our lovely country home where we raised our family and still live to this day. Many lives have been blessed for having known Art.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time.

Dear Jeri: I will be writing you soon. We were shocked and saddened by Art's passing. Our hearts go out to you and your lovely family. Words cannot express our fondness for both you and Art. Art was a great man and we loved him. I know how proud he was of his posterity, and I know how grateful they must be for his legacy of faith and goodness. We love you, Jeri....may the Lord bless you during this most difficult time.

With love and admiration,

Bob and Dorothy Bryson

As I learned of the passing of Patriarch Adams, I remembered many warm greetings from him throughout the years. I also think of his fine wife, children and grandchildren who I have had the pleasure of knowing in both Bakersfield Stake and South Stake. May you all feel peace at this difficult time and may you cherish the wonderful family experiences that you shared together during your lifetime with your husband, father and grandfather. With Love,

Always a smile and a handshake, that was Art. Such a nice person. I well remember the patriarchal blessings he gave to our daughters. He will be missed so much, yet he still lives, only in another realm, very close to us. We will see him again, and it will seem like only a short time.

Dear Jerri and family, We were sorry to read about Art. We knew him at KCUHS, Gay graduated the same year and Don the prior year. We always enjoyed seeing him through the years. He was a pleasure to know, always so nice and friendly. Our sincere synpathy to all your family. Don and Gay Robinson

Dear Jerri and family, We were sorry to read about Art. We knew Art at KCUHS, Gay graduated the same year and Don knew him too, having graduated the year prior. He was a very nice person we enjoyed seeing through the years, always cheerful and friendly. Our sympathy to all of you. Don and Gay Robinson

Patriarch Adams has always been my favorite Bishop. Whenever I am at the Temple I can always count on his warm handshake and friendship. He truly made a profound mark on my soul by his viliant example. I know only a few men who measure up to the example he has been. My Father-in-law George James said it best when he wrote "The world was a much better place from him being here". Sister Adams, Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Brother Adams was my first Home Teacher when I moved to Bakersfield. His love for my family and example to all of us will never be forgotten. Our love goes out to his daughters and sweet wife, Jerri. Mike and Marge Judd (Corona, CA
