Adam Winstrom Obituary
Adam attended Zeeland Christian and graduated from Holland Christian High School in 2005. While at Holland Christian, Adam was on the football team and assisted wherever he was needed. After high school, he attended Hope College through the Ready for Life program and Community Based Instruction. Adam was greatly loved by all of his friends at Compassionate Heart Ministry where he participated for almost ten years.
Adam was preceded in death by his mother, Jetta Winstrom in March of 2009 and is survived by his father, Dr. David Winstrom. Adam lived life to the fullest and will be deeply missed by his father and many, many friends.
A Memorial Service to celebrate Adam's life will be held on Friday, January 2, at 7 p.m. at Maplewood Church in Holland and on Sunday, January 4, at 2 p.m. at Covenant Life Church in Grand Haven. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be given to Compassionate Heart Ministry.

for Adam Winstrom
January 11, 2015
David, I just got a phone call today telling me the news. I am so sorry! It is beyond imagining, and no words can express the sorrow we all feel with the loss of Adam. Some of my favorite memories are the telephone calls, along with his laughter. He and Jetta have been reunited in the stars... may God and friends give you the strength you need to carry on.
Warmly,
Sandy Keirnan (and Evan)

Adam's special smile and his great love of life will be greatly missed on Thursday nights at Special Ed Ministries in Zeeland. He added his own special color to our times together! We're sure he is laughing right along with Jesus in heaven! Bless you, dear Adam! Russ & Sandy Blanchard

Adam had an incredible heart and passion for life and others. The football and track programs at HC benefitted greatly from his love. I was blessed by Adam's kindness, his races in track, his calls, his humor, and his heart.

We are sorry for your loss and praying that you will be comforted by the care of others and a sense of God's presence in your life right now. I will really miss seeing Adam on the sidelines. I looked forward to hearing him ask me how Kyle was doing. He was a very special young man!
