Published in the Albuquerque Journal on Sunday October 12, 2014

GOSWICK, ADAM MARK Age 31, passed away Thursday, October 9, 2014. Adam was born on April 6, 1983 in Fort Smith, Arkansas. His family moved to Topeka, Kansas when he was 18 months old, and then to Amarillo, Texas when he was four years old. Adam was seven when they finally settled in Albuquerque. He became a Cub Scout, following in his brother's footsteps. He followed that path all the way to his Eagle Scout Award when he was only 14. Adam was an active and enthusiastic member of the Covenant Presbyterian Youth Group throughout middle and high school, participating in several mission trips to such exotic locations as Mount Pleasant, Utah, Estes Park, Colorado, and Deming, New Mexico. His travels as a Boy Scout took him on a Philmont trek, a sailboat cruise at Florida Sea Base, and a bicycle hike in Moab, Utah. Adam began work as a busser at Garduno's at the age of 15. Although he was ready to quit after the first day, his parents persuaded him to give it three weeks. He stayed more than 10 years, through high school and college, working as a bartender for the last several years. He graduated from La Cueva High School in 2001. Adam was a proud graduate of New Mexico Tech where he received his B.S. in Mechanical Engineering and felt himself forever a "Techie." He worked for two years for Applied Industrial Technologies in Denver before feeling drawn back to Albuquerque. At the time of his death he was working at Lucky 66 Bowl while searching for a full-time engineering position . Adam is survived by his parents, Dennes and Ann; brother, Sam and sister-in-law, Raven; and his two beloved cats Monkey and Peanut. Memorial services will be held Monday, October 13, 2014, 3:30 p.m. at Covenant Presbyterian Church, 9315 Candelaria Rd. NE, 87112.
