Was a high school friend who just found out he passed away. Your tribute and writing is truly amazing. Thank you for this incredible piece. It gave me a lot of solace.

Dear Robert: No doubt it was tough on you. Adam was a kind of a figurative star. He impacted so many folks: One’s demographics never came into play. Truly a blow he’s not here. We all loved the guy. He had a few flaws, as well all do, but that’s what made him human—and undeniably bust over in your chair humorous

What happened to Adam? How did he die?

Todd, yes: Stormwind mentioned that mudlarking, but he has pots in so many fires, I was forced to pick and choose. Kind of like another frontier, all that under-surface stuff.

Great profile. I had no idea there was so much cool stuff out in the desert. I watched some YouTube videos recently about modern "mudlarks" who search river mud in England for lost treasures (and junk).. they even find Roman coins sometimes.
