So tragic.and yet very comforting to know God has a new angel. Prayers from our family to yours. May you rest in heavenly peace.

I, like everyone that knew you, only see your smile when I think of you. You never know what you truly feel for someone until they're gone. I now know what a special, caring and beautiful person you were by all of the comments your friends and family have expressed. I wish I had the chance to go back and be a fan in your corner as you tried to pursue your dream of becoming a firefighter. But I can't change that now.... It seems like an eternity before we will see you again, but it's nothing in comparison to the time we will all have with you once we meet in heaven. Love you sweet boy!!!!

I still am in disbelief that this has really happened. My heart is heavy and I have yet to find comfort. God must have needed an angel for sure, but I just wish it wasnt so soon. I love you and will greatly miss your every morning text.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Cortinas family in this trying time. Adam was a very enthusiastic young man that gave countless hours of service to his community and the fire service. For that, The Florence Fire Department, citizens of Florence Texas, and those that he aided in their most desperate time of need are forever indebted. It was an honor and a privilege to know Adam not only as a fellow firefighter, but as a friend – never forgotten.

Everytime I think of Adam I see him riding down the street on his bike when he was just a little boy and seeing him in his sunglasses around town. Adam, you will forever have a special place in this family's heart! May you rest in peace and watch over your loved ones and friends from your special place by God's side...
