Adam: A Story of Life and Death...and Love

"Adam Routhier was an adorable, loving, and kind little boy with a smile that could melt even New Hampshire granite. In many ways, he only got better with age. He was a handsome young man. He was also a good athlete and was smarter than he usually showed. Adam was one of the most charming, sensitive, funny students I ever had. He was also one of the most highly unmotivated students I ever had. He died in September of 2004, three short months after his high school graduation. Those who knew him best knew he had a streak of superiority, of invincibility. There were times he aggravated us, provoked us, vexed us, even infuriated us. But always he loved us - and we loved him. And, God help us, well over a decade later, we still miss him." -- From publisher description
