Dear Jean, Robert, Kenneth and Jackie
A lovely brother in law. A most pleasant kind gentleman is how I will always remember you Adam.
Fond memories of the times we all spent together as a family.
Thank you for all the kind care you gave to my sister Jean.
Sincere sympathy to all the family. You are all in my thoughts and sorry I can’t be with.

To the Love family.
Firstly, my condolences to you all. Adam was my surveyor for my first fishing vessel, Rigel. It was always a pleasure to be in his company. A warm friendly gentleman with his big smile. I always made sure the kettle was hot before he arrived. It was only a few days ago that I was thinking of him and then, bugger me, I read of his passing in the paper. He truly was a fine man.

Sincere condolences to my dear sister Jean, nephews Robert, Kenneth & my lovely niece Jackie, grandchildren & great grandchildren.
Adam will always hold a special place in my heart, the kindest guy with the superstar looks & he made the best porridge. He certainly kept his promise to Charlie as he looked after Jean so well. There will be a party in heaven & a great rendition of “Carolina in the Morning”
Rest easy Adam xx

We only got to meet Adam once at Rob and Vanessa's wedding. He was such a nice man. He had a way about him that commanded the room when he spoke. It is a life well lived when loved so heartily. Lynn and Kae. Minot ND, USA
