To Rosa and Family, I am so sad to hear of Adam's passing. I will always treasure those wonderful memories with Adam and you. From Camping, to fishing, to dropping in for neighborly visits at your house. I grew up with him and he will be remembered in my heart always.

I am so sorry to hear of Onkel Adam's passing. Because of the distance we were not able to visit often, but when we did visit, the times were very memorable. I will especially never forget the fishing trip to BC in 1971. My most heart-felt sympathy to Tante Sally, Monica and Family.
