    Adam was one of the most genuine people I've ever known. I visited and stayed with him for a week when he lived in West Palm Beach and it was a trip filled with unforgettable memories. He lived life to the fullest and if you knew him, you loved him. I always have happy memories when I think of him. He had a truly remarkable personality and was special person. So sorry for your loss.

    Cath, Ken, Chris and Ange - my heart is broken for you all and I'm so sorry this is happening. Adam was the coolest kid but never "too cool" to come to family events or to hang with me and Cath. I enjoyed watching him grow and loved our times together haning with him and his friends taking day trips or just hanging in and playing scrabble. The memories I have from our Disney are some of my favorites. We weren't in touch as much over the last few years because life got in the way but we always had a special connection. He was so sweet with an innocence about him that only made him more lovable.. I was honored to be his "Auntie Jo". I love you all and will grieve this tragic loss with you.

    To the Emery family, I am terribly sorry for your loss. As you can see from the other notes Adam was thought of as a truly funny and likable person. I have some memories from playing WHK hockey with him that make me laugh out loud every time I think of the stunts we pulled in the locker room. I hope you can take some pride in knowing how many people he made smile over the course of his time with all of us. May he rest in peace.

    Adam was a true person. I have so many stories...one of the best is a party I invited him to that my future/current wife's friends were throwing on Boston. 5-6 singles girls surrounded me and asked who my very cute friend was. I said " who ...Adam". I then glanced over at him. Adam at this time was mowing on nachos, and his cheeks were covered in sour cream. I said "yeah he's a special guy". I personally could not have appreciated him more. But that was the best thing I always admired and appreciated about Adam. No matter where or who... He always stayed true to himself........I love you Adam. You are one of if not the best human I have ever known..!!!
