  3. We are so sorry and shocked to hear that Adam passed. We were neighbors of the Baker’s when we lived on Lee Drive. Bill and I were Adam’s godparents. We kept in touch with his mom and dad until Sherry passed away and Tom moved. Sherry knew she was very sick and she prayed she would live long enough to finish raising Adam. She deeply loved her boys. I’m so sorry we lost contact with the family. You have our deepest sympathy and prayers.

  8. Tom, Aaron, and Carrie: I am deeply sorry for this tragedy. Adam was the first friend I ever made and truly one of the greatest I ever had. I have so many wonderful memories of sleepovers, birthday parties, sports games, and mischief making. Adam was a very special person and everyone loved him. I don’t know if he knew that because he never acted like it. He was always so kind, friendly, and generous to all. Additionally, he was also one of the funniest people I ever met and I still laugh about some of the things we used to do and say. He was the best friend a kid could have and I am so grateful to have called him one. I have and will continue to treasure my memories with him.
