Our hearts are broken over Adam’s sudden passing. What a great friend and talented electrician. We used to tease Adam that he put one of our light switches in the wrong spot and in return he always had a “funny” reply. Now that light switch will be our fond reminder of Adam’s larger than life personality. Heaven gained a good one.

Adam was a one-of-a-kind man. He was original. For a short guy, he had a BIG heart. The jokes, the going back and forth with the Italian and Greek jokes... I'll miss it!! He was always there, if I needed electrical advice. He was a great customer, great friend and a great joke teller.....
To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord....
God bless family and friends, May God give you comfort and peace, like only He can.....
I'll miss you at Loeb Electric Adam... but the memories of you... will go on forever.... you crazy GRANDE UOMO.......

Diana, I was saddened to learn of Adam’s passing. I remember your wedding like it was yesterday, and I’ll never forget the time you invited me to your home in Minerva Park for homemade pasta.

I know the many emotions grief can bring. Please reach out if you’d like to reconnect with your old high school friend and classmate. I would love to spend some time with you.

Sending you my deepest sympathy,

Adam had been doing business with us for so many years that he truly felt like part of the Loeb family. His presence stood out—you could always recognize his laugh from across a crowded room. There won’t be another quite like him.
He will be greatly missed at Loeb Electric. Our sincere condolences to his wife and extended family.

Shocking and very sad news. I will never forget you my long time elementary friend. Someone mentioned all the fun times growing up in Minerva Park, I know I won’t forget. Those were some of the funnest times of my young life.
My heart is aching for you Dianna and all your family and close friends. I think there might be a party going on in heaven right now! Rest in peace my long time friend, I will miss you.
