2 memories of Adam
Adam and I played together as children. I have a picture of all the neighborhood kids dressed up for my brother's "animals and farmers" birthday party on my fridge. He's wearing a hat with ram's horns made out of paper clipped on it and a little brown face paint on his nose. It's cute as hell. He was probably around 5 years old. He lived right next door. He was my friend and I miss him. Love to the family, I think of you often.
Adam and I attended the same high school. While he was a little difficult to figure, he had a passion for drumming and was full of life. I had the fortune of knowing him in his short life that ended way too soon. R I P ADAM!
