Adam's life here on Earth was defined by love, deep caring and selfless sacrifices to everyone he met. The love and devotion that he showed to his friends, family and anyone in need was extraordinary. His unique personality, signature goofy grin, and gigantic heart made him the biggest blessing to everyone he met.
From the moment Adam Arrived in this world he was special. there was never a dull moment with him, and it was impossible not to laugh and smile whenever he was around.

During his high school years, he embraced everything from the poetry of Jim Morrison to his own amazing athletic abilities excelling in both football and track and field as he conquered every challenge he took on.
