She also remembered how hard he had tried to convince her to get matching tattoos with him.

She complimented Szychowski's writing abilities, his excitability, and his passion for his friends.

"When he talked about people in his life he loved, the room would light up," Elkins said. "I never had an interaction with Adam where I didn't smile."

Those in attendance said that the service did a good job in summarizing Szychowski's life.

"The service was very nice," said Elizabeth Ciurylo, an 8th-semester biology and psychology major, who knew Szychowski from USG. "It suited his personality really well."

"It was fitting for him," said Bradford Wilson Cook, class of '07 and another one of Szychowski's peers from USG. "It's great to see so much support from his friends and family, it was a really good showing."

After the memorial, attendees were invited to enjoy refreshments and reminisce about Szychowski. Additionally, they were encouraged to share stories about Szychowski at a Web site for this purpose. Storiesofadam.com.

"I'll always remember his incredible oratory skills," Cook said. "He could inspire so much emotion from people just by talking to them."
