I remember Adam with his beautiful smile and rosy cheeks. He was always so polite, and he was always friendly. I would see him at the gym and even when he was sick, he still smiled. He worked out relentlessly, and he gave it everything he had.
He was a blessing to everyone that he met. I am sure that the Lord has a special mission for him. We are all praying for your family!

I remember what a good student Adam was when I taught him in the fifth grade at Calvary. He made a tremendous difference in so many lives during his 22 years. Our comfort lies in the truth that Adam is celebrating with his Lord and Savior while we mourn our loss.
Love to all his family,

As I read the obituary I recognized the name "Ross" because I taught Matthew Ross in the 2nd grade at Calvary. My husband and I will pray for you as you cope with life without Adam. One doesn't lose someone when they know where they are. And, you have the promise that you will see him again in Heaven. May you experience His All Sufficient Grace. Love and Prayers, Chuck and Laila Fletcher Romans 8:26-39
