John was a great leader and entrepreneur that led with vision and empowerment. He was the heart and soul of T-Speed. I will miss him dearly...

John and Fran...what great memories I have of your dad: the warmth, kind-heartedness, generosity, energy, humor, love of family and friends -- these and so many more similar words that attest to the character of the man we all knew and loved... I'm so sorry for your loss, but hope that your cherished memories (and those of others, like me) will give you comfort and peace in the days ahead. God bless each of you...

I had the good fortune to work with Mr. Adel while I worked for T-SPEED here in Dallas, TX. John was one of the most genuine and sincere individuals I ever met. I feel blessed to have known him and truly appreciate the values and character he taught us in leading the T-SPEED team.

John and I first met during WWII in the South Pacific island of Fiji. We maintained our contact for over 60 years. My deepest sympathy to every family member. I share your loss. John was a brother to me.

We share with members of John’s family their deep sorrows on the passing away of this great man.

Please accept our sincere condolences and commiserations on behalf of members of Al Fardouss International Company/ Syria.

We pray to God Almighty to forgive John and rest his soul in peace.


To John's wonderful family and especially to Franny & John Jr.: Like so many who knew John and loved him dearly, we will cherish the memories of his kind, loving spirit, his great good humor and enthusiasm, and his forever-young attitude, which he gave away his whole life long.
