I was saddened to hear of Adam's passing. I knew him when we were both students at Albion College. I only had one class with Adam. It was a sociology class to meet our "gender requirement" for graduation. I remember that Adam always sat in the very front row of the class (I think Coach must have told all the FB players to sit there). He always tried to keep the mood light when we were discussing the serious topic "gender equality". Adam had an infectious smile and sense of humor that always made me laugh (sometimes our professor would even join in!).
The world has lost a great human being and a lot of laughter with Adam's passing.##imported-begin##Jenny Barthel- Combs (Albion Class of 2000)##imported-end##

Dear Pringle family, Our family is so sorry for your loss. We met Adam at Fruitport Chiropractic Center when he started working there. He helped my daughter and I on our way to feeling healthy. He was always an encouragement. My little boys would come in with me and love to talk football with Adam....a "real" football player. He is dearly missed. We will continue to keep you all in our daily prayers...that you will feel God's healing and comfort in the days ahead. The Mitchell Family##imported-begin##Sandy Mitchell##imported-end##
I went to Albion with Adam and I will never forget him. As passionate as he was when we worked out together, he was even more so in helping out people. I watched as this huge man would get down on all fours and crawl as he coached Special Olympics. I saw how quick he was to volunteer and help people in need. He was frank and brutal honesty which was refreshing especially in a time when most people tried to be politically correct. He was a big reason why I joined the Alpha Phi Omega service Fraternity. I firmly believe that many people's lives are better because he lived and I will truly miss him.##imported-begin##Ralph McCarty##imported-end##
To Mrs. Adam Pringle,
May God grant you peace in the days ahead. My prayers are with you.
To Don & Julia,
My deepest sympathy. God word says He will never leave you nor forsake you...even now. May His grace and love abide with you.
Shalom!##imported-begin##Sequita Jackson##imported-end##
Don and Julia, I am sorry for your loss. I have many memories of Adam coming over to my house to help me out and to keep me company while I took care Ryan. He had grown from that little boy I knew into a man to be proud of.##imported-begin##Carol Fricano##imported-end##
My heart goes out to you, Amber, and your families, including your "Thunder Family" during this time of sadness and loss. Adam was your pride and joy. Whenever I ran into you over the years you just beamed with happiness when you spoke of Adam and of his accomplishments and his goals in life; a life cut too short. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you and I hope you find peace in knowing that Adam was everything a parent wants in a Son. God Bless##imported-begin##Candy Dault##imported-end##
Jeremy and I were Albion College classmates of Adam, and we were extremely struck and saddened by the news of the accident. Saying he was one of the nicest guys doesn't seem to go far enough. I don't think there was a time I passed him on campus when he DIDN'T give me an enormous hug and ask me how I was doing. From all the messages in the guest book, it sounds like his genuine caring for others never ceased. I know his loss will leave a hole, though I can't imagine its length or depth. Please know that we will be praying for you and for all his family and friends, for healing and for peace, for a long time.
Our thoughts, our prayers, our love, jen and jeremy peters##imported-begin##Jen (Miesle) and Jeremy Peters##imported-end##
Our dental office was saddened to hear of Adam's passing.I feel very fortunate to have had the oppurtunity to watch him grow as a sensitive boy and become a star european football(high school-THUNDER)player.He gave me a t-shirt from the euro team(popular player)which I wear alot when working out and jogging.I'm often asked who is this player? Now its even more apparent to me why he was so popular with fans and friends! Adam was kind,caring and very passionate about the people and activities he loved.The THUNDER football life was a passion for him and his love for life was immeasurable.We should all strive to have positively influenced so many lives both directly and indirectly.Its not the LENGTH OF ONES LIFE THAT MATTERS BUT THE DEPTH!!!!!! Blessed were we that were in his "sphere".God certainly has a special place for him.##imported-begin##mark lange##imported-end##
Don, Julia and Amber, I met Adam and Amber when Adam was living at the Hampton Inn the 1st year the Thunder was to come to life! I got to know Adam fairly well during his extended stay with us! I made sure that he always had something to eat and on many occasions even did his laundry for him! Adam would always come and say Hi to my 2 sons at the football games and make sure they were having fun.He is one of the kindest and most caring men I will ever have the chance of meeting in my lifetime! My whole family is so saddened by this tragic loss. Our hearts and prayers go out to you and the entire family!##imported-begin##Sheri Fierros and Family##imported-end##
