"I am the water waving with every stroke." 

-Adam C. Wendling

Dear family and friends of Adam,

Our family will be hosting a Celebration of Life to honor our incredible Adam in Denver fall 2014. 

{Date, time and location information will be posted to this site as soon as possible}

 Adam Christian Wendling  

October 18, 1979 to March 11, 2014

 After a courageous three year battle with brain cancer, Adam peacefully passed away at the age 34.  Born in Geneva, IL, Adam grew up in Naples, FL and later moved to Golden, CO with his family.  Adam will be remembered always for his immense and contagious enthusiasm to live life to the fullest. His untamable adventurous spirit, took him to some of the world’s highest peaks, deepest oceans, and scenic flights over land and sea.  Adam was a high altitude expedition leader, member of the Alpine Rescue team, expert rock/ice climber, skier, motocross rider, mechanic, instructor level scuba diver, avid kayaker, private pilot and, within the last year, he took up paragliding.  Adam studied business in Key West as a scuba instructor, and later owned a successful automotive detailing business, Automotive Reconditioning, in Colorado.  Above all, he was a committed and true friend, and never hesitated to express his deep love of music, laughter, and family.  Adam is now in the loving arms of his Grandma Carol Taylor and his Uncle William "Billy" Wendling.  He continues to be embraced in love by his Mother, Nancy Taylor, and his brother, Dustin Taylor Wendling, Adam's girlfriend Megan McLean and "Team Taylor": Grandpa Bob, Uncle Richard (Robyn), Aunt Ann Taylor-Bush (Art) and cousins Brittany, Kyle, Christopher, Joel and Alex.  After a public celebration of Adam's life in Denver in this fall, per his request, our family will release his ashes in the warm waters off the coast of Key West.  

Thank you for all the continued love and support.  It is much appreciated.  We look forward to celebrating our beloved Adam with all of you.

Love,

Team Taylor
(Nancy, Dustin and Megan)
