Adam was my U/W when he was with Liberty. But he was also a friend, he will be missed on the golf course, poker nights and watching ball games @ the bar. I will miss the back and forth banter, ribbing and jokes exchanged by true friends through sports teams, competition and fantasy football. He was genuinely a really great person. I cant believe he is gone, RIP

Jacqui

Great co-worker, golf buddy, but most of all friend. I will miss him dearly.
