Body

Adam died suddenly July 29, 2014, in New City, N.Y.

Adam graduated from Suffern (N.Y.) High School. At Princeton, he savored every aspect of the University. He played varsity football as a defensive back, where he fostered some of his strongest friendships. In addition to his athletic involvement, Adam served as social chairman for Charter Club.

After Princeton, he remained close with his college friends. He was always among the first to appear at Reunions and made it his personal mission to keep all of his friends together for every major reunion, including, most recently, our 25th. His experiences at Princeton, combined with his persevering attitude, led Adam to a distinguished 25-year career in finance, working most recently at FBR & Co., where he was a managing director and head of convertible sales.

Adam married Robin Fiddle in Palm Beach, Fla., nine years ago. His Princeton classmates and their spouses have become extended family to Robin and the couple’s four children, Dakota (“Cody”), Jack, Hunter, and Charlotte. In addition to his wife and children, Adam is survived by his parents, Gail and Stanley Posnack; and his sisters, Beth Hecht and Jennifer Demarchi, and their families.
