Though the exact circumstances and time of death are yet unknown, the family representative told media outlets like TMZ that the death has been speculated to be from a fatal overdose, though specific details are still being discovered. The Las Vegas Metro Police Department is investigating the case. Rick Harrison took to his Instagram to share a photo and a pithy tribute to a son lost before his time was up.

The reality star posted a grinning selfie of the two of them when their oysters and beers awaited them on the restaurant table, and they had all the time in the world. The post was captioned, “You will always be in my heart! I love you Adam (broken heart emoji)”. In an age of long, rambling captions, sometimes pain and grief are best expressed in unuttered words.
