This is very sad news . I met Adrian in ApacheCon last year at Austin Texas, I still remember, I was the first one to go in the room on the second day and I guess he was the second or third and we had a good 30 mins chat about Ofbiz and our personal how-about as this was the first time we met each other.
I haven't worked closely with him but have good respect for him based on his contribution to Ofbiz and his commitment towards Ofbiz and the community. Adrian will be missed a lot by Ofbiz Community. May God give all the strength to his family and loved ones during this tough time. Adrian Rest in Peace.
