Dear Family, I have known Dr. Adams over 25 years and she and Bishop were true treasures in my mind. They both had great spirits and a beautiful way about themselves. She was always such a pleasure to speak with and made it clear always how important her Family was to her, I hope that might bring some solace during this time of grieving. May her Memory be Eternal! with sympathy, Damon Limberis
