Tony Paul Adams Sr.

Dear Adams family,
I knew your father when I was around 14-15 years old. While that was a very, very long time ago, I never forgot what a great guy he was. His smile was incredible! And as I recall, he was always smiling. Always. He had long hair, and drove an orange bug which was usually parked at Royal Palms... Maybe 5 years ago, I ran into him at Bally's. It must have been 20 years since I had seen him, and yet to my surprise he remembered me by name. His face lit up with that...

Tony Jr., Logan, Kirsten and Megan,

My thoughts are with you all.
Your dad and I have knowned each other and each others kids for years. We first met at baseball. Logan and Ryan were on the same team. We also ran into each other at soccer. We would sit there and catch up, and then talk about those crazy parents that couldn't control themselves. Girls you were so cute and so young.
I was greatful that we were able to attend the service at Palms. There were so many people...

It has been an absolute blessing knowing your father. I will miss him so very much Soduku in the morning with his awesome hugs and beautiful smile.

Countless talks at the beach or in the water surfing, a very kind and mindful person, a sad loss for sure. Very Sad.

Dear Adams Family,
I met your dad when we were 15, his girlfriend Susan was one of my best friends at the time; through the years we kept in touch. My daughter Terry is friends with Megan & Kristin. I was so shocked to hear about your dad and I'm still grieving the loss of him. I remember when he would bring his twins to the soccer field, he always had your hair in different hair styles. I said Tony you sure fix your girls hair up nice! He said that he watched videos on it, thats...

On behalf of Eric Fizulich and the entire Fizulich family, we are thinking and praying for your family during this time of grief. Tony was one of my brothers best friends in Jr. High and High School. He was always over our house, he loved skate boarding down Elanita Drive, where my parents still live today. He was the life of the party.
May the good memories sustain you and bring you peace.

It saddens our hearts to hear that we have lost another brother in the martial arts family. Tony will always be remembered as a high spirited martial artist with a passion and love to share his knowledge and talents with others. A quality and heart of gold that we all will remember throughout our lives.

Our condolences and prayers to all of his children and family.

Dear Adams Family,
I just found out today about your dad. I am still in shock and feel so sad... I always saw Tony at the gym, and then walking his dog in my neighborhood by Weymouth Corners. The last time we spoke was in Starbuck's on 25th last year. He looked absolutely great--handsome, fit, and happy. He told me about his kids and how they were all growing up.

Reading all of these posts, I see that I never really knew him and never knew just what a great guy he was. He...

Tony, Logan, Kirsten & Megan,

I miss training with your dad at the Inosanto Academy where we were family. Of all my relationships there, the one with your dad was the most interesting. None of our encounters were ever casual. Each time we engaged, it was always a hug that turned into a snuggle and he always tried to make me feel special and pretty. I was devastated to think I would never see his sweet, handsome smile again, and then I met you and realized I would see it every...
