Bon voyage Jake. Thanks for the fun times we had in our teen years, racing through the woods in your '38 Chevy and the overnight poker parties at the hunting camp. So many good memories. We'll see you when we get there.

Dear Adam, you were a dear friend to my father, Sheldon, to Grace, and to me. You will be missed - that quiet, knowing smile of yours and your fun, gentle way - your sense of humor and deep love of the Lord, family and friends. Bon Voyage! xxoo
