I’m having a hard time absorbing Adam’s passing. He is on my mind every day. Every time he came into our store he had on a smile so warm and different clearly showing how much he liked you. In a very short time I got to feeling like he was my son. I’m 93 now and I’m praying that we will be together once more. God bless you Adam

I just heard about Adam's passing!  What a bright light he was! I had the pleasure of working with him as producer of my two solo harp albums.  He was a stellar musician and a solid mensch.  The world was made better by his being here.  His joyful spirit and hearty laugh live on in my heart.

I’m so sorry for your loss Maria. What an accomplished musician, although I’m sure his greatest accomplishment was the life he shared with his beautiful wife and daughters. 
Fondly,
Jo Ann Hintzen

Just read this sad news. We are so sorry for your loss, our deepest condolences.

I am totally devastated at Adam’s passing. The last time I saw him he gave me such a long and warm hug.  What a guy.  I just can’t believe this that I won’t see him again,,,,or maybe I will.  May God bless you Adam,,till we meet again.

I went to school with Adam in Westbury (another June, 1961 baby) and even then we knew that he was special and was going to BE someone. Then I saw his cameo in the movie Fame, and was even more sure. I had no idea that he would go on to such amazing accomplishments.  Please accept my condolences on your loss and may his memory be a blessing.

Dear Maria and family,

My thoughts are with you during this challenging time. I'm very fortunate to have known Adam. I knew him for only two years but it seems like a life time, we directly connected and became close friends. He welcomes me and trusts me from the get-go to be part of his team and pursue his recording studio's dream. When I saw Adam last, he said to me (as he was pointing at the new studio): "Don't worry Ivan, all this will continue". It shows how considerate and caring Adam was and those words will stay in me forever. I definitely will continue his legacy with Silas but his loss leaves a void that can never be filled.

My deepest condolences, Ivan (piano technician)

Dear Maria,
Sending much love to your family.

Dear Maria,
We still can't believe that Adam is no longer with us. Our hearts are full of love for you and your girls. Adam was a true gentleman and kind friend. He will be missed by all those who were blessed to know him.  May his memory be eternal and a blessing. 
With much love,  Michael and Marina

Maria,

I only wish that Len and I could have been at the service this morning; however, it is a bit more than Len could manage,  I remember how Adam rushed to the beema one of the last times Len was at the PJC is person to help him down the few steps.  After the service, I sought out Adam to thank him and he responded - so genuinely -, "call me anytime - day or night - if you ever need any help."  The beautiful part is both Len and I knew he meant it.  What a sign of a kind and understanding human being.

Len and I send you and your daughters our heartfelt condolences and, returning the words of Adam, we are here - day or night - if you ever need anything.  And we truly mean it.

With love,
Judy and Len Cooper

Maria, 
Cenovia and I are sending you, your girls love.
I can not really process Adam leaving his physical body after such a strong ,strong life he lead. 
He was beyond beautiful, his kindness , his creativity will remain with us always. 
He will be missed by all of us who worked with him. 
His recording’s are the heart and soul of the SF Ballet archives. He helped us be better by his high standards.
My words reflect only a small amount of the thoughts I have for Adam. 
I am sorry we missed the memorial today. We were not aware that it was today.
However Cenovia and I are with you and your family always. 
Please lean on us if you need we are here for you and the girls. 
A huge loss for us in the classical music world.
He will be missed but his recordings live on with us all🌹🙏

Adam loved this Strad, the tone it spun and wanted to feel it under his fingers. I will never forget how he played at on stage during one of our breaks (he loved the Maire bow as well).

Adam and Doron came to our house during the lockdown and recorded. It was incredibly special.
