Pop, As a baby having come into this world I would not know the impact you would have on my life.From the time I could speak the name "pop" you became so much more.I thank you for so much,the experiences of living in beautiful places,being at every game or match when no one else could.I thank you for instilling in me the work ethic which sustains me today.I thank you for holding my hand the day I accepted christ into my heart.There has been no other man on this earth I have loved or respected more.I thank God daily for having sent me to you.Until we are united again you remain in my heart.
                                                 your grandson
                                                         Jim

I want to add my thoughts about Adrian as my adult life started at A&H Electric.  Thanks to him and his son, Mike, I enjoyed a lifetime career in the electrical business.  Adrian was always a good friend to me and I was fortunate to see and talk to him periodically over many years.  Blessings to all his family.

Hey pop .. this is gonna be hard because I'm crying as I type this. I tried to hold it in but its kind of hard. For anyone that knew you, knew how great of a man you was. You were such an inspiration to so many. You taught me some amazing stuff pop. You were always so caring, filled with joy, full of laughter and jokes. You had one hell of a sense of humor. There was never a dull moment with you. Even up until a week before you passed you was making jokes. You held on for so long, you were so strong for so long. Life without you is going to be hard. Its not something I ever planned on doing. But your name will forever be carried on with me.❤ I'm thankful you got to meet my son. Although you're reunited with memaw, we know you loved Neva. We're not gonna leave her behind, we will be here with her for ever. Pop I love you so much. Words can't explain it. You being gone is so unreal, but I know you're flying freely now with no pain or worries. Watch over me please. You'll forever be my guardian angel. I love you .❤ 
rest in paradise..

Adrian (pop) was the best man I ever knew he was not only my granddad he was the only dad I ever had and yes he spoiled me but he also taught me how to respect and be caring and family always comes first.I loved him so much I named two of my children after him. I have never respected another person like I did him.He was my teacher, my friend and I am so glad that he lived long enough to see his family grow up and have kids of their own.I loved to go fishing and camping with him he made it so fun.I thank god that I had the time to tell him that I loved him and thanked him for everything that he did for me and my family.I will miss you so much pop but I know that you are up there in heaven with no more pain dancing away.I love you Pop and one day I will see you again

Adrian was a great man he always made me laugh and its so unreal and I never even got so say I love you or bye he means alot to me and my whole family R.I.P adrain aka pop

to all those that knew Pop,knew he was one off the most forgiving,unjudgmental,easygoing,funloving,generous,always willing to help others,wether they deserved it or not,with that being said i would like to say im very lucky to have got to know Pop.I loved Pop as my own granddad he has helped me grow to be the man i am today with help when i needed it and scoldings for doing wrong,he never said i was doing wrong he just asked if i was shure what i was doing was the right thing. Anyway Pop,I love you,may you rest in peace, and you and Waymon go get'em on the dominoes.

Adrian was truly a good friend, he will be missed by everyone most especially me. Enjoy your long walks with Roy, he was waiting for you.

Adrian was a truly great man. He gave me a new start in life 35 years ago. I will always be grateful. I will forever remember his kind, gentle and peaceful nature. May he rest with all the saints in heaven. My prayers and thoughts are with all the family.
