James your such a great person and I can't fully believe that you are in heaven now. I just keep thinking that you might still be here and its hard to accept this. Just seeing the sorrow that a lot of people are going through is hard. It was hard to wake up to your funeral and to see everyone devastated. I, myself finally cried after awhile of not crying. Its so hard for me to cry and when I did I felt terrible. James I will never forget you and I'll see you again.

RIP James Adolfo you are missed and loved by many [including those who did not get the opportunity to meet you:)] May you rest in peace. Even though MANY are sad, we know that you are in a much better place now. We long for the day we walk beside you.

My deepest regrets to the Adolfo family and relatives for their loss. I will never forget the first time that I saw James come into the St. Peter School office to take his placement exam. Even then, I discovered a very kind, gentle and polite nature about him. I wasn't wrong, when he came to school all I ever saw his beautiful smile outside in the school yard. I would kid around and often call him James "Adobo", I will miss his beautiful personality.
- Sincerely, Edith S. Leon, former St. Peter School secretary.

James,
You will be truly missed by all of us who knew you. You have touched many lives and we will never forget you. You always know what to do. You are such a nice person. You always seem to have a smile on your face, and that used to always brighten up my days back in St. Peter's. Thanks for being a part of my life and I will miss you truly.

I was blessed to have James in my Media Class at Capital. James was always polite and respectful. He had a gentle spirit that other students admired. James you will be missed. May your family find comfort in knowing that you are at peace with your loving Savior.

James was one of my son, Matt's best friends. They became friends in kindergarten and remained friends even though James changed schools. They shared time in band in elementary school and James was a frequent visitor in our home. James will be sorely missed until that day when we are all reunited. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Adolfo family. My God grant them peace.

Our hearts and our prayers to the Adolfo Family. May you find comfort in knowing that you have family and friends supporting you during this painful time.

We were honored that James was able to spend his last few days with our sons. He was a very good young man, very polite and always smiling. Just last weekend he gave us a good laugh when, after we prepared and bought them various snacks to eat during the sleepover, James decided he'd much rather have......Top Ramen with two eggs! He cooked it. We didn't mind, as long as he didn't get hungry.

Thanks for being such a special friend to our boys, especially Drew. We will miss you! God bless.

Dear James,

Thank you for coming into our lives especially our daughter's, Mayleah. You have changed us forever and we will truly miss seeing you every weekend and having dinner with you. What an honor it is to know that we met an angel on earth. You were the perfect boyfriend and son and I can't imagine anyone that will come close to your kindness, sweet personality and selflessness. Please watch over her and make her strong. I wish I had the opportunity to tell you how much we cared about you and that we considered you part of our family. This is your second home. Visit us anytime you want. We will not say good-bye but until we meet again.

With love in my heart,

Mr. and Mrs. Brown

James you were a great guy. One of my best friends at school. You always knew how to make me laugh during lunch and I loved playing basketball with you. I'm going to miss the times where you would spend the night at my house and play video games with me. Senior year isn't going to be the same without you. I'm going to miss you. R.I.P my friend, I can't wait until the day I get to see you in haven.
