Adam "Adamo" Swierzy

We are all overcome with grief and extreme sadness as we mourn the loss of our beloved Adam “Adamo” Swierzy. We are raising money for his mother, whom he cared for, to help cover funeral expenses and for his little girl. 

There are no words that can bring comfort or understanding as to why he has been taken from us, too soon, too young.

He was a sunshine, always smiling, always willing to lend a hand to anyone that needed it. 

 
In the book “Man’s Search for Meaning” by Viktor Frankl we hear the story of a holocaust survivor, who embraces life even in the face of great adversity. Despite the unspeakable horrors of the concentration camps, Frankl learned from the strength of his fellow inmates that despite everything, it is always possible to say “yes to life”.  The author says, “We who lived in the concentration camps can remember the men who walked through the huts comforting others, giving away their last piece of bread. They may have been few in number, but they offer sufficient proof that everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way."


Anyone who knew Adam can attest that he lived this way, he was this kind of man, the kind that are few in number but proof that life is meaningful and beautiful. He was such a hard worker, a maker of magic and mozzarella, he kept a sunshiny, positive attitude no matter what, the type to comfort others despite his own suffering, the type that was always so very selfless and generous of his time, never too busy for a kind word, to lend a hand or smile to anyone who needed it. He will be so dearly missed in so many different ways. Eternal rest grant unto him oh Lord and let the perpetual light shine upon him, may the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
