Mr and Mrs. Boardway and Megan, I was blessed to have made wonderful memories and a lasting friendship with Adam when he was in Pittsburgh. Adam was one of the most genuine and courageous people I have had the chance to know. I'm so thankful for the times he, and I and Sara were able to share, as these will be lasting memories. Please know my deepest sympathies are with your family at this tragic time. God Bless.

I have not seen Adam since before high school graduation, but he always made such a good impression on everyone he encountered. I particularly remember meeting him at 9th grade Latin convention and later asking my daughter about this "neat kid." And then there are Ukrop's memories. He was always so nice and he even came over and opened the car door for me! What a great job you both did as parents. Thank you for sharing Adam with the world.

We are sure that Adam will bring a smile to the faces in heaven as he did in his life on earth.I will always remember when Adam would come to Pittsburgh.He would open up our back door and ask " Mark what are we going to do tonight" We will look for him tomorrow in spirt. God Bless each of you and may Adams memory be enteral

My memories of Adam go back to his High School days and his frequent presence in my daughter Kathy's home, and his friendship with my grandson Jonathan. Then, at Tech, again with Jonathan. Then, at Jon and Sybil's wedding 080808. What a fine young man!! So cheerful, never complaining. To his family, friends, Kathy, Jon & Sybil I say how saddened I am for your (and our) loss.

I called Adam my second son. He would come by and visit me even when his friend and my son Jonathan was not home. He will be missed by many as he was a bright star in this world. My mother had the opportunity to meet Adam at my sons wedding when walked to our cabin for breakfast, and she saw his depth and loving spirit and has spoken of
him often since. He enriched our lives with his presence an will continue to do so with our memories of him.
