My condolences to our family! Despite being cousins I never had the opportunity to meet my beloved cousin. We always seemed to miss each other at family engagements. Although , we never met I have mad respect for him. I live in Pittsburgh and I´m a Kappa. There are sooo many people that have I´ve met who knew him from Cheyney and always tell me stories about the "bopper". He clearly had a presence that people respected and admired about him. Prayers go out to my cousin Keith and Patty! I´m Aunt Katherine sister Zelma´s baby boy!
Rest in peace Cousin Adam ... you made an impact and shook the system!

I knew him as Renny. Actually, everyone in our East Mt. Airy neighborhood knew and called him by that name. No matter, he will be deeply missed by us all. May the Renfroe family be in peace and be blessed always. Prayers up and sincere condolences!

Deepest sympathy to the Renfroe family. Adam was a friend of my wife at Cheyney University and a friend of mine at Howard University. Adam (Kappa) and I (Omega) were also part of the Divine 9. We also enjoyed a few Sundays in Atlantic City (Chicken Bone) beach. We will truly miss him, but will cherish the memories.
