Good Bye Victor, Rest In Peace

Victor TimAdamsMy good friend, Dr. Tim Adams' son, Victor Adams, transitioned this week. I have always been at a lost for words during this type of situation. What do you say when you are trying to comfort your friend and their family when they are experiencing this type of heart ache? There is nothing on earth that can take away this agony and restore joy. But, there is another source.

I am not a pastor or a preacher, but I pray that Dr. Tim Adams and family can find comfort and solace in the comments below and within their own faith. These are just a few of the hundreds of comments from social media offering condolence. The Adams family is clearly in the thoughts and prayers of the community.

AACCC:
We offer our condolences on behalf of The African American Council of Christian Clergy to one of our founding members Dr. Tim Adams and family. Our hearts are sadden by the news of the passing of his son Victor Adams and we are confidant that God will sustain you and your family during this time.

friend:
Tim please know that you and your family are in my prayers! While I can't pretend to know what you must be feeling after the loss of a child I can attest to you that God does know best and he will heal your grieving heart. God bless you!

friend:
May God wrap you in His grace and mercy during this time. My condolences to your family. Continue to hold God's unchanging hand!

friend:
I can't believe my friend Victor Adams has passed. I just stopped by and saw you last night! You smiled and waved I never thought that would be the last time I would see you. Then today my mom called me and told me that you had went home to glory! The facility won't be the same without your smiling face. No more pain its your time to rest.

friend:
Mr. Adams. My heart is heavy. Praying for you and your family during this sad time. Victor Adams you were a great friend and I will never forget you. ...
