Simply put Elmer is one of the finest men I have ever known. I will always cherish the memories I have of Elmer from my childhood to my adulthood. He always treated me and everyone else for that matter with love and respect and I am without a doubt a better person for having known Elmer and Pauline. I know this is probably one of the hardest things the Adams family has ever been through but stay strong for eachother and take comfort in the fact of knowing Elmer is in a much better place. If you need anything at all please call me. I love you guys and will be praying for you.
