I've known Adair for the past several years. I loved our chats about art and where her current projects and artistic journeys were taking her. She was such a kind soul and so lovely to spent time with. I will miss her.

Adair was my neighbor for many years. She was always so sweet and her love for her animals was something to see. She gave me some of her pottery some years back and I will always treasure it. Heaven has a wonderful new artist ! God speed Adair, you will be missed....
