Dear Mr.&Mrs. Paolone, Mary & Kids,

My name is Andy Stepka, and I just found out last night of Adam's death.
I met Adam is the late Summer of 1985 at Widener University. We were on the same hall together. We hung out , and pledged the same Fraternity.LPO later to become ATO. I remember a extremly energetic, funny, and loyal, friend.
I even made a trip with him to your home one weekend during "hell-week" and we enjoyed some home cooking that we had'nt experienced in a while. Those were great times..
I lost touch with Adam in the early 90's as we all started building our lives, family and so on. But, I never forgot about him. He made too much of an impact on you . Even though I haven't seen or heard from him in years, I'll miss him forever.
My most heartfelt condolences to your family, Adam's friends, and his Children. ( You had an awesome Dad)

October 19, 2009

Dear Mr Mrs Paolone,Mary and children
We are just heartsick about the loss of Adam, as our family has known him since he was 9 years old, it is hard to comprehend the loss you all must be feeling as it is so hard for our family too. We loved Adam and will always remember Adam with Love and affection. The Flemming Family Rich and Dottie

For My wife, children and family: please don't mourn for me
I'm still here, though you don't see
I'm right by your side each night and day
and within your heart I long to stay
My body is gone but I'm always near
I'm everything you feel, see or hear
My spirit is free, but I'll never depart
As long as you keep me alive in your heart
I'll never wander out of your sight
I'm the brighest star on a summer night
I'll never be beyond your reach
I'm the warm moist sand when you're at the beach
I'm the colorful leaves when fall comes around
and the pure white snow that blankets the ground
I'm the beautiful flowers of which you're so fond
the clear cool water in a quiet pond
I'm the first blossom you'll see in the spring
the first warm raindrop that April will bring
I'm the first ray of light when the sun starts to shine
and you'll see, that the face in the moon is mine
When you start thinking there is no one to love you
You can talk to me through the Lord above you
I'll whisper my answer through the leaves on the trees
and you'll feel my presence in the soft summer beeeze
I'm the hot saltly tears that flow when you weep
and the beautiful dreams that come while you sleep
I'm the smile you see on a baby's face
Just look for me, I'M EVERYPLACE!

Mary, Madison, Adam Daniel, Mr. and Mrs. Paolone and family,
I believe the measure of a mans life is in those he helps. In the years I knew Adam, he was a pillar of strength to those in need and a guardian of hope for those whose troubles seemed insurmountable. He will always hold a special place in my life and I’m sure, a special place with Man upstairs.

Dear Paolone Family,

Adam was my first friend in Williamstown. I was a new kid in 8th grade at Oak Knoll and I didn't know anyone and Adam took me under his wing, I'll never forget that and I can still picture the first time we met and spoke. We remained friends and coincidentally became doubles partners on the high school tennis team. There will always be a special place in my heart for Adam Paolone.

Peace and Love.

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Paolone and family. I was so sad to hear about Adam. He was my best friend and next door neighbor, growing up in Williamstown. I will always remember the good times we had and will never forget him. Mary and I will keep you and your family in our prayers. Love, Mark and Mary Pluguez

Dear Paolone Family,
My deepest sympathies on the passing of your son, Adam. Words can not express how you must feel during this sad time. So I will remind you of the happy times your son, Adam has brought to this world. Adam touched alot people during his short life, including me and many others that grew up with him. I will always remember his smile and raspy voice that when he was in a room you knew he was there without even seeing his face. I can still hear him calling my name "hey Louie whats up". He is and always will be in our hearts no matter what his battles were here on this earth. God bless my brother, friend and fellow "budboy" Adam is now looking over his family, children and friends with that one of kind smile only he could do. I am happy and proud to have been your friend, God Bless you my friend we will meet again !

Dear Paolone Family,
Adam and I became childhood friends shortly after my dad move to Silver Birch. I would spend summers and holidays there hanging out in the street with Adam, Mark Pluguez, Steve Dimitri and Susan Font. I have such wonderful memories of all the fun that we had.
Adam has always had a very special place in my heart.
Please accept my most sincere and deepest sympathies on the loss of your son, husband, father and brother. I will pray for comfort and peace as you go forth without your beloved Adam.
Sincerely,
Stacey Rotchford Certain

Dear Palone Family,

Please accept my deepest sympathies. I am fortunate to have many wonderful memories of Adam. He and I played soccer together in high school and he was always so much fun to be around. A few years later when we both worked nights, we would meet in the morning and go fishing all the time. We caught alot of fish together and loved every minute of it. He will be deeply missed.

May the Lord be your strength, hope, and salvation. Adam will forever be in my prayers.

Mr and Mrs Paolone and Family.
There are no words that could even come close to expressing how sad i am about the passing of Adam. I know your not suppose to question Gods plan for us....so many times i still do. But i do know one thing my Mom fought her way to heavens gate Friday night to be one of the first angels to welcome Adam home. I would not have survived all i have in the past 8 years if my Mom was not on the other side protecting and guiding me........and now you have your own angel too. I pray that God guides you from sadness to peace. Adam would want it that way.
I Love You All Deeply and will keep you in my thoughts and prayers

Mr. and Mrs. Paolone, Marguerite, Maryann, Joyce, Michael and Ralph,

Words cannot express how deeply saddened I was to hear of Adam's passing--there are few words people can say at a time like this that will ease your pain--there is not one childhood memory I have that does not have you guys in it, especially the antics of Adam and Steve. I know he is up in heaven and Adam and my Mom are looking down on us and protecting us--my thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this sad time.

Love, Carmen, Debbie, Ryan and Austin Iacovone(Demitri)

Dear Paolone Family,

Our deepest sympathies from our family to yours. Adam was a good kid and we will miss him. When a young person passes it is never easy.

St. Francis Assisi has a famous prayer;

Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love.
Where there is injury, pardon.
Where there is doubt, faith.
Where there is despair, hope.
Where there is darkness, light.
Where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood, as to understand; to be loved, as to love: for it is in pardoning that we are pardoned, and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

Fair winds and following seas, my friend! Rest in peace.

Love,

The Gaidis Family
