Adam you will always go on living in my thoughts. A true friend and a loyal brother you never let me down. I'm sorry that God decided to take you now, maybe he needed a good runner for his track team in heaven I dont know but wha I do know is that you will live in our hearts for ever.

This is Adam's mom, and I wanted to share a writing with Adam's friends and family. A friend of mine just sent it to me, and maybe it will help all of us to cope a little, minute by minute. The author is unknown.
The Cure
We think that we get over things.
We don't get over things.
Or, you could say that we can get over measles,
but not a broken heart.
We need to make that distinction.
The things that become part of our experience
never become less of our experience.
How can I say it?
The only way to "get over" life is to die.
Short of that, you move with it.
Let the pain be pain,
not in the hope that it will vanish,
but in the faith that it will fit in,
find its place in the shape of things.
And, then, be not any less pain, but true form.
Because, anything natural has an inherent shape,
and it will always flow towards that shape.
And a life is as natural as a leaf.
That's what we are looking for;
Not the end of a thing, but the shape of it.
Wisdom is seeing the shape of your life
...without obliterating a single instant of it.

"MY OLD FRIEND"
My old friend, I recall
The times we had hanging on my wall
I wouldn't trade them for gold
Cause they laugh and they cry me
Somehow sanctify me
This woven in the stories I have told
And tell again
My old friend, I apologize
For the years that have passed
Since the last time you and I
Dusted off those memories But the running and the races
The people and the places
There's always somewhere else I had to be
Time gets slim, my old friend
Don't know why, Don't know why
My old friend, this song's for you
Cause a few simple verses
Was the least that I could do
To tell the world you were here
Cause the love and the laugher
Will live on long after
All of the sadness and the tears
We'll meet again, my old friend
Goodbye, goodbye
My old friend, my old friend
Goodbye...

In a rush to come to earth,
In every person, he recognized their worth...That's our Adam.
Passionate and giving no matter what the cost,
Encouraging warmly any who was lost...That's our Adam.
Big contagious smile and warm embrace,
Running along, head bobbing during every race...That's our Adam.
Shouting on the sidelines for anyone in need,
Speaking words of kindness to those in whom troubles breed...That's our Adam.
Eager to let loose and eager to come together,
Always smiling and cheerful in any kind of weather...That's our Adam.
His smile and laugh could brighten up even the darkest hour,
Remains strong and brave while others cower...That's our Adam.
Beaming down upon us and listening as we pray,
Giving us his strength and helping us through each day...That's our Adam.
Forever unique, taking each day in stride,
Leaving us feeling blessed and with a sense of pride...At knowing our Adam.
Rest in peace...You will be missed so much by so many. Do it right, Boncela...We love you!

How lucky we all were to know him.
I need to say goodbye although you're with me.
I stand beside your grave, yet you are here.
I miss you terribly and hope you miss me,
But when I turn to you, you're always near.
I talk to you as though you lived within me,
Not changed but simply moved in from outside.
Here, as always, you must be my guide.
You were and are and will be, just as ever,
In many minds and hearts, not only mine.
No physical event can such love sever;
Death is a dimension, not a line.
And so goodbye does not mean you are gone:
So long as I still love you, you live on.

This poem is a tribute to Adam's vibrant spirit as both a supporter of cross country (during a season when he was spectating rather than participating, due to leg injury?)and as an impressive athlete in track.
Passing
Harriers ran unheralded
until a green and black
painted face appeared
whooping and hollering,
like cross country was big sport.
He was the carrier
of harrier spirit,
picking up their steps
all the way to States.
Then it was his turn
to relay his message on foot,
on the track,
huffing, hoofing 800,
head swagging wildly
down the stretch,
heading for States again,
passing runners left and right -
a very good leg, sub-2,
stoking the spirits
of teamates, friends,
as he passes the baton.

I ran with Adam on the team when he ran at UDM. It is sad to know that Adam will never be coming back to visit us again...his time here on the team and during his visits after he left UDM will always be remembered. My prayers go out to the Boncela family and all who feel sorrow due to Adam's passing. I will not say I am sorry he is gone though, because he will never be gone, he will forever live through the lives of every person he touched.

The last time I saw Adam he was a child. Yet last night I dreamed of two young men walking a path together. I could only catch a glimpse of them because I was behind them. But I knew one young man was Adam and somehow I knew the other to be Danny, my first-born son who died in 1969. I wanted them to turn around towards me but they continued to walk their own path. I woke with a sense of comfort knowing someday we will meet again on that path.

I was a teammate of Adam's in high school and have such fond memories of him. Even though Adam was not a long-distance runner, he supported the cross-country team by coming out to every meet dressed up as our cheerleader. In full Dublin Coffman Shamrock style, his spunk brought a smile to all of our faces helping to eliminate the stressful pre-race jitters. Everyone always looked forward to watching Adam race during track season because no matter what, he would always give it all he had. My family's thoughts are with Adam and his family during this period of loss.
