In the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, where the words lockdown and self-isolation became common terms and a new way of life, a family spread across several continents was forced to bid farewell to a beloved husband, father, brother, uncle, and son. The sudden news broke hearts and took away not only funeral privileges, but also the opportunity to bid a final farewell to a man who traveled far and wide to reach his ultimate potential.
In a poignant tribute, J. B. Harris chronicles the life of her mischievous, lively Uncle Adam through her eyes. While detailing his fascinating life journey that included world travels and an entrepreneurial stint, J. B. also shares insight into their experiences together as a family as they vacationed in the Maldives, celebrated his wedding, the birth of his children, and the arrival of her own bundle of joy. Yet despite all the challenges and obstacles Uncle Adam had already overcome, there was one he could not- the journey to his demise. As he was struck down with an illness during a worldwide pandemic, J. B. details his determination to fulfill a final journey that led him to a fate he never imagined.
In this moving biography, a niece shares the story of her uncle, a kind-hearted man who traveled the world, endured hardship, practiced patience, and finally found peace by drifting into the light.
