He was a herpetologist by trade and he did TaeKwonDo on the side and was a 2nd degree blackbelt. Our boys were great friends having known each other since preschool and done TaeKwonDo together. His death took us all by surprise because it happened from a freak accident due to dry ice that turned into carbon dioxide while delivering rats in a minivan to another herpetologist in Florida. There was a leak and the dry ice off gassed carbon dioxide into the van killing Adam and his co-driver. They were able to pull to the side of the road but sat on the side of the road dead until the police were informed of their disappearance when they didn’t check in when they were supposed to. When they were found they had been dead for several hours. It’s a sad senseless death. Everyone feels that they will wake up and this will all have been nothing more than a bad dream.

The video below is from balloons that were released in his honor today.
Grand Master Jun Lee, Adam’s Grand Master, was in attendance today to pay his respects. Life may go on but it will never be the same. Adam lit up any room he was ever in. Such a good man.
