Amy Gould (1979) Writes - “Dear Art: I am so sad to learn about Adam Abeshouse’s passing. Our Class of 1979 grew up together from North Side to Wheatley. Adam was always special, talented and kind, with an infectious smile for everyone.
My love to his entire family. Best, Amy”
Brian Napack (1979) Wrote to Adam Before the End - “Adam, I just learned of your struggle. If the unspoken recesses of my heart are any judge, you are deeply and widely loved, appreciated, and admired by scores of people worldwide who may have simply forgotten to tell you.
I have never lost my deep affection for you despite the many quiet years. Our first area of common ground was music, but I quickly figured out that you are a truly special soul. You are a cherished friend who has always been an important part of my life. I have not, and will not, forget what a rare gem of a person you are. All love and affection, Brian (on behalf of so many more).”
Hello. I am sorry for your loss. I know how hard it is to have a brorther pass. I feel grateful to have had the time I had with my brother Joe and miss him. I hope you are getting support as you need during this painful time. Sending care, Barbara Schwartz
