We, myself and my siblings, have the honor of calling Adam, one of our Argyle Fathers'. How lucky we all are to have had him touch our lives. Funny, witty, knowledgeable, and mischievous. Loved his wife, loved his family, loved his extended family, and loved life. Our lives will forever be touched by his life, by his love. Adam....you have left this world better because of you.
Hugs to everyone.........
