Cynthia and family,
My deepest condolences on the loss of your father. I was blessed to have known him for almost 40 years. He was a kind and funny man who always made me laugh. I will always remember him fondly.
May the Lord bring you comfort during this sad time.
Dearest Patty,
I was so very sorry to hear of Adrian’s death. As my “twin” (we share March 13th as our birthday), it was always fun to exchange greetings. He was such a sweet, courteous gentleman, and he will be sorely missed. Our prayers are with you and your family at this sad time.
Fondly,
Carol & John Hayn
My sincere condolences to the family. Adrian was the sweetest guy and always had a smile on his face. He reminded me of my own grandfather which gave me comfort on the days I would see him. Continued prayers and strength for the days and weeks ahead. He was a good man.
Adrian and his wife, Patty, was good friends to me for about 50 years. I met them when I was young and started attending Kountze Church. I felt like they mentored me in those beginning years, and I learned much from them. Adrian was a gentleman and a wonderful, caring, compassionate man. He was a good husband and father. I know he will be missed by his family and many more! My sincerest sympathies to his family!
