Very sad news. I only knew Adam from the auto body industry and he was well liked by his peers, including myself. Losing this young and talented man in his 40s is a loss to us all. My heart goes out too those who loved him.

My heart is hurting. Adam was one of the sweetest people I ever met. I´m so very sorry for your loss; the world will miss his smile, his kindness and his sense of humor. My heart is breaking for his family and Nicole. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. I really tried, and so did he. May his sweet soul rest easy with Jesus.
