I was saddened to hear of Adam's passing, he was such a a dynamic personality!  I met him at York University as we were both doing fitness testing for firefighting applications.  His athleticism and techniques were so helpful for me to follow and give me a better score on the test.  I had the opportunity to work with him a few times during his time with Toronto Fire and he was always entertaining during down times and professional during calls.  I hope that his family has been able to share some memories of him and find some joy in them during their time of grief.  Adam will be missed by many.

Hello Douglas
We are so sorry to hear about the untimely death of your dear son.
What a tragic loss that must be to the whole family.
He is exactly the same age as our son Gregory.
My sister Sonya, saw the obituary in the Spectator.
We wish you a much peace and comfort as you grieve Adam’s passing.

Dear Lychak Family,

I am deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Adam. Please accept my heartfelt condolences during this incredibly difficult time. 

Adam, was a wonderful person who brought so much joy and kindness into the lives of those who knew him. I feel fortunate to have shared meaningful moments with him, especially the day he officially became a firefighter, and I will always cherish many fun memories.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all as you navigate through this immense loss. May you find comfort in the love and support of those around you and in the cherished memories of Adam.

With deepest sympathy,

Susie

I’m sure there’s a good story behind this one! I wasn’t there personally, but someone knows!

Adam wanted to buy Korben his first panzerotti, there sure was some excitement that night! Adam you sure made this kid happy ❤️

Our deepest condolences to Adam’s family, Veronica and Korben. Adam was a wonderful neighbour who was quick to welcome us into the community. 
“Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal”.   Cherish all your wonderful memories of Adam.

Adam told me over and over how this is one of his favorite photos of all time. He used it as his contact photo for Doug in his phone. This was one of the best trips him and I had together.

Dear Adam’s family,

I am very sorry for your loss. In this tough time I pray 🙏 for god’s blessings, strength and peace. 

Adam had helped me through when I had retinal detachment surgeries. He had gone through it himself and he guided me and check up on me between 2020-2022 and I had five surgeries. I lost that eye. But I always remember him being there for me. I had only met him once or twice in person. He was a good man and I can’t imagine is gone.

Best,

Adam and I were together for 4 years and remained friends. He was a huge part of both my kids (Ethan, Sierra's) and my life, making it forever better. In midst of revisiting these pictures and memories,   I removed this picture and discovered this hidden note that was tucked away behind the image. I was unsure as to who wrote it, It resembled Adam's handwriting, his speech pattern and realized my kids were too young to have written this at that time. How ironic I have now found it admissed such unfortunate circumstances. I now realized it was Adam Who wrote this note years ago in hopes that we would find it one day, So I'm sharing that with a heavy heart. Both Ethan and Sierra grown adults today, this is now exactly how they would describe their relationship with Adam today.  He was A great father figure to them, when they needed it the most. I'm very grateful to both his parents for have instilling such great qualities an Adam.

On this Disney cruise, we were selected family of the cruise. We were able to skip line and be the first family to board the ship. Much to Adam's delight!

Adam LOVED food. It was a way to his heart.

These two goof balls. Adam was a huge part of our lives, and his sense of humor directly impacted both Ethan and Sierra. It helped them break out of their shells and is a big reason why they are now so witty and humorous.

So stoic! Adam was always larger than life, and was able to leave an impression wherever he went. He also believed in and fought for the underdog, and did his best to right the wrongs of the world.

Our heartfelt condolences to all the family.  We are so deeply sorry for your loss and our thoughts and prayers are with you.🙏❤️

This was new year’s morning after Adam took us to a gorgeous breakfast at Isabelle by the lake. Again the perfect gentleman, he took such pride in caring for us. I love you Adam ❤️

Adam was a wonderful neighbour. We always enjoyed our chats with him. We are so sorry for your loss, Veronica. Sending strength to you and Korben, and all of Adam’s family.

Adam in his fire t-shirt sent all the way from a  Ukrainian hall 🇺🇦 Thank you Vlad and Inna ❤️

A walk with a favourite neighbour Branko, he turned 96 that day. Branko always brightened Adam’s day. Adam would seek him out to share stories, deliver treats, and once called home for backup after Branko brought out the strong drink! Adam loved Branko ❤️

The day you let Korben skip school to do more important things, like get his hands dirty, and spend time as a family on a gorgeous day. He was so proud to work beside you. You were more than a cool bud, you were a father figure and you excelled ❤️

This what shot when Adam was going to a emergency.i remember saying to Adam I never got a pic of you driving.so he was super happy I snapped a picture of him

Here is Adam operating at a 2nd Alarm Fire on Weston Road.i remember him coming up to me so excited because we haven't

Enjoying a great summer night dinner on the patio at Station 133

Thank you Adam for the memories ♥️
Never forgotten xx
Love to all family and friends of Adam!
