Dearest Adams family,
I am so sorry to hear of Gordy's passing, and please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. Your Husband and Dad was awesome, and he has always held a special place in our hearts. I can still see him in my mind behind the plate at the Little League games. He was a man of honor and respect. Thank you for all that you've done for our family while we were growing up without our Dad, we looked up to Gordy. RIP sweet man.

All of you are in my thoughts and prayers. I knew him for most of my life, and always had the utmost respect for him, and I know my parents feel the same way. He was a great guy!

Pappy we just wanted you to know that you will be missed by us. Matt loved hearing your Navy stories and he was looking forward to sharing his stories with you about boot camp. Matt prayed for you daily. He asked about you all the time. I know you wanted to hang on until he got home but we didn't want you to suffer. You always made Matt feel at home when we visited. Rest in peace Pappy. We love you!

Dad - I don't even know where to begin. You were my world. You were not only a great grandparent to Haylei and Cole - but you were their Pappy. We will be lost without you. It is difficult walking into the house and seeing the empty chair. But we couldn't watch you suffer any longer. You held on longer than we imagined. You will truly be missed. I can't even express the pain that we are experiencing. Love you Dad - I will see you in Heaven.

I don't know how to do this....to say goodbye to a man that was the glue that held our family together. Walking in and seeing him the way he was the final night was a shock. So small and fragile. My dad wasn't a big man, but you felt like he was a giant in the way he carried himself, the way he spoke with the most confidence in everything he said and did. He was scrappy, never backed down to anything or anyone. Growing up with him, I was Daddy's little girl. He would sing to me in German, count to me in German when I couldn't sleep. Took me to the Bier Garden with him while he had a bier and spoke to his buddies. Went everywhere with him, did everything with him. I can remember wrecking his car the first time I was allowed to drive his Lincoln continental by myself. I was afraid, left the accident. I thought he would be furious, he wasn't, he only cared that I was ok. He was the Little league president, coached baseball, a basketball referee, played in the minor leagues with Jackie Robinson and Satchel Paige, served in the Navy during World War 2. The list goes on and on. Seems like everyone knew my dad and respected him. You always knew where you stood with him. He had a good marriage, 67 years, in a time when people divorce for the stupidest reasons. 7 kids, son in laws and daughter in laws that were more like his kids than not, 16 Grandkids, numerous step grandkids, and great Grandkids. My dad taught me never to back down, to stand your ground and for what's right and that family is the most important thing. I hope I made you proud Dad. Love you, Kelly
