Upon learning of Adrian's passing, I reflected on my school years in Warner. Adrian stands out as a true measure of a"Gentleman". I thank the Lord for my memories of him. Alan Peterson Logan, Utah
My heart is heavy and I mourn with you in this loss. Words cannot describe my sorrow. I will lift you and your family into the Lord for comfort. Blessings
Adrian's kindness and compassion for elderly people on the ambulance was heart warming. He was a genius with wood working tools in his hands. At the fire hall he loved to talk about all the trips he took with his family. Sorry I cannot be at the memorial but working with Adrian brings back a lot of great memories.
