My condolences to his family. Adrian was one of my best friends in junior high school at Greenville Junior. We had many classes together but it was the sense of humor, the hall talks, the study times that were the best. He was a brilliant student but his sense of humor was even more brilliant. Yes, he got me into trouble during class as he made me laugh while keeping his face straight. I regret we did not reconnect in the past years as I love him forever.

Adrian was such a wonderful person, and I only knew him a short while, as the most devoted father of Ryan, and grandfather to Amaya and Anna. His ability to relate to folks was particularly amazing, as were his sharp wit, deep wisdom and his protective nature for his kin. I won´t forget the day he and I discovered that he went to school with my favorite uncle, John Taylor and that he delivered newspapers to my great, great aunt when he was a teen. We had so many more things to talk about as South Carolinians in New York. I´m so very sorry he´s gone. Sending my sincerest condolences to Louisa, his wonderful wife, who he clearly adored, to his sons, and to the whole family.

Adrian was a classmate at Greenville High. He was always smiling and courteous. What a great guy he was! I am so saddened to hear of his passing. From the other posts here I can tell he stayed that same wondert spirit.

I've known Adrian since we were teenagers. We went to church and school together and played basketball. I have so many memories of laughing and him intentionally scaring me to death with his driving. Overall Adrian was a good decent guy.

Adrian was a dear coworker and a great friend to so many! He was like another uncle to my kids as they grew up, and they loved him. We are praying for God to comfort and provide strength to his family during this time of loss. See you later, my friend!

Him on his newspaper route, coming in to St. Francis Hospital early in the morning, making those paper deliveries. Adrian personified goodness and an excellent work ethic. He cherished his mom and looked after her until her death. This whole family was loved by ours for many, many years.

Our family has great memories of Adrian as our nextdoor neighbor for many years, but especially as our friend. Our children grew up together. We all have such fun memories of tubing and canoeing down the Chattooga River, snow skiing and so much more! He will be greatly missed. Praying God´s peace and comfort for his family.
