My name is Will, Adam and I meet at the Brass Rail in Minneapolis and began dating approximately 18 years ago or so. I cherished every minute spent with Adam, his son Anthony, Mom Carol, step- Dad (now passed), and sister.
I was just made aware today that Adam passed in 2023 and am heartbroken over the loss. Although Adam and I had our challenges in our relationship, we always worked things out and moved on.
Adam and I separated some time around 2008 and subsequently reunited as friends which is when Adam came to me for support after being diagnosed with HIV. How I miss his wonderful smile and the moments he and his family and I had together. Especially swimming in his mother's backyard pool.
Adam, you will be forever missed. And please let your smile light-up the roads in heaven.

Carol-- you and your family have always held a dear place in my heart. The resemblance of things we both went through, me with my brother and you with Adam. I'm glad I had the chance to meet him as well. Keep your chin up, there's a lot going on but I know you loved him so very much. To Amanda-- stay strong. Being a sister who has lost a brother I know the pain you feel. I wish I knew the words to make it hurt less. But only time can help heal that. Many hugs to your family! -Melissa Spicer (Carol's favorite medical assitant)

I am never good at this sort of thing, I guess expressing myself but felt led to do so. Adam was my supervisor at Illumifin. We were all so shocked and surprised to hear of Adam's passing. Adam, by far was one of the best supervisor's I have ever had. He was fair, offered constructive criticism when necessary but went over the top with praise when you did something right. He enjoyed his work and seemed to excel at everything he did. He often started the mornings off with a wise crack joke that had all of laughing. He always spoke so highly of his family and friends and could really tell a genuine love there. RIP Adam, you will and always will be missed at Illumifin.

My first experience with Adam is when Adam came to my house with Anthonyto interview for daycare for Anthony.
I can see the smile on Adams face as he shook my hand. His smile and his laugh were the best!!! And unbelievably contagious, and genuine.
Anthony has all of the same qualities!! He came in and sat in my lap. I said to Adam, you do know, Anthony has to come here right!?
Adam smiled and laughed with pride all over his face!!!
This Family has been a Huge blessing in my life!!!
I love you all SO MUCH!

Adam was the first person I met at the job and hired me. He was a very nice and energetic person who was always willing to help. I still have his number in my phone. My sympathy and condolences to his entire family. He is already missed.
