  Condolence/Chuck McAdams
  Mr. McAdams was the father of one of my best friends, his son Steve. Although most of my contact was with Steve, I always appreciated the friendly, stable demeanor of his father. It is funny the things you remember, When Steve turned 10, Mr. McAdams took Steve and several of his friends bowling for Steve's b-day party. On the way home we stopped at Kellys for burger and fries. Although Mrs. McAdams tended to be more of the Evangelist, Mr. McAdams was always the positive male example, who took an interest in the things I was doing. We stayed in touch pretty much through college as I was Best Man in Steve's wedding and he was Best Man in my wedding. After this time our visits became fewer and far between. Then we started to see each other years later at the Edward Jones seminars at Garden Spot Village. It was so nice to sit down and talk with an old friend. He is missed, but I know he is much better off. I know I am better because of the positive influence of Biblical manhood that Chuck McAdams was.
