Adam was absolutely the best son and friend. He never created an ounce of worry for his father and I nor the community. I would describe Adam has an old soul, we had the honor of sharing many of the same friends. He touched so many lives through his Rotary service, his Twitch TV activities and the community. He loved to travel but hated flying unless he could fly first class (free drinks until departure). He loved horror movies. I don't; think he missed a new release. He loved food and to cook, always modifying the recipes to spice it up. Like his mother, Halloween quickly began his favorite holiday. He never missed an opportunity to wear a costume. As a youth he loved participating in the Mummer's Parade, winning first prize for the best costume on two separate occasions. Adam was a gift to his father and I and to those who knew him. He was loved by all who knew him.
