This breaks my heart. Adam leaves his wife and 4 young children and many family and friends. Please pray for this family
So heartbreaking lifting these families up in Prayer!! May God send his peace that surpasses all understanding.
I had the honor of working with Adam for almost 10 years. He was a very intelligent, talented and entertaining guy to be around. I’m sorry for all of his coworkers who will miss him dearly, and praying for his family who must miss him more than words can possibly describe. He spoke of his wife and kids often and was very proud of them. I’m so sorry for the loss of this great man.
