We found out yesterday that a friend of ours passed away. We’ve been processing it all for the past 24 hours because it was such a shock. Adam Perry, age 48, passed away from accidental carbon dioxide positioning. It was a freak accident. He was doing something he’s done probably 1,000 times and a leak happened and took his life. Adam is the dad of T’s oldest friend. T and Adam’s son, Blayden, have known one another since they were two years old having gone to the same preschool together. T ended up at the same Dojang as Blayden after preschool and they received their 1st and 2nd degree black belts together. They are still good friends. This death has hit T hard and he’s hurting for what his friend must be going through. Adam helped the boys through both of their 1st and 2nd degree black belt test cycles. Adam was a 2nd degree black belt himself. While he may be gone he will never be forgotten. RIP Adam Perry. You were an amazing dad and friend. We never saw you without a big smile on your face.

Adam was a big reptile guy. He especially loved snakes. He introduced T to his reptiles and T loved every moment of it.

Adam received the student of the year award the same year he earned his 2nd degree black belt. Such an awesome man. #gonefartoosoon
