Adam, like so many on the BMW lists, you were always ready to offer suggestions, ideas and assistance when ever any one posted with a question. I am sad we never met. Your absence on the list will be felt by many for some time to come.

Adam, we are sorry to see you leave us. Your HAM buddies miss you terribly.

I am so shocked...knew Adam a very long time ago! It is good to know he thrived as a Volunteer fireman/EMS, and glad to know he had loving friends and family to the end.

I enjoyed our 100+ transports as ambulance crew mates. We did a lot of good together. Hoisting our radio tower was a high point for me. It was a pleasure to know you and work with you.

I volunteered with Adam at Marbletown rescue. Adam was a sharp, smart, caring and dedicated volunteer EMS worker. I am proud to have served with him. I am deeply saddened by his passing. My heartfelt condolences to his family.
