ADAM CHRISTOPHER MCNAMARA

Adam is survived by his parents, his grandparents: Thomas and Claire McNamara and David and Karen Wertzberger, great-grandparents David and Delores Wertzberger, nine uncles, seven aunts, nine cousins and numerous well-wishers.

{REST} Though his time on earth was short, the joy he brought is beyond measure. Thanks be to God for Adam's profound witness to the beauty and sanctity of life, and the power of the seemingly powerless.

Many thanks to Fr. Timothy Hogan for ministering to Adam and his family.
