Adam was an undeniable light in all of our lives. His positivity and sunny disposition towards life was truly inspiring. You always knew where you stood with him. Adam always knew how to make you smile, either with a kind word of encouragement, a quick comeback or a meme, he knew the task at hand. Almost like a constant hug he was a real life teddy bear who gave the best hugs that would instantly put you back together when you needed it most. He left a mark and set a standard on being a genuine human being. Adam loved music, concerts and was an expert at guitar hero. He loved his coworkers, his family and most of all Jesus.
