Following the sudden and tragic passing of Rick Harrison’s son, Adam, the Pawn Shop’s star breaks silence posting a heartfelt tribute to Instagram.
Adam, 39, died of overdose in Las Vegas on Friday, leaving his family utterly devastated and shocked.
“You will always be in my heart! I love you Adam. 💔,” Rick wrote alongside a photo of himself smiling with Adam at a bar.
Previously, a representative of the family, Laura Herlovich, confirmed Adam’s death to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
“Our family is extremely saddened by the death of Adam. We ask for privacy as we grieve his loss,” the statement read.
Speaking to Fox News Digital, Rick revealed the exact cause of Adam’s death saying that fentanyl was to blame.
“Yes, I can confirm Adam died from a fentanyl overdose,” the reality-show star said. “The fentanyl crisis in this country must be taken more seriously. It seems it is just flowing over the borders and nothing is being done about it. We must do better.”

Fans, as well as some of Rick’s celebrity friends, were quick to share messages of condolence.
“I’m so sorry man,” wrote Donald Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr.
Adam’s brother, Corey Harrison, also paid his tribute to his late sibling on Instagram, sharing an old baby photo of the two of them in a bath.
“Wax wtf I will always love you bubba,” he captioned the image.
Adam was Rick Harrison’s second child from his first marriage to Kim Harrison. Rick later went on to marry his second wife with whom he has son Jake.
While we saw Rick and Corey running the Gold & Silver Pawn and appearing on the show, Adam was not as involved, although it has been reported that he did work with his father.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports overdose deaths, including synthetic opioids, raising 56.6% from January 2020 to 2021.
The Drug Enforcement Agency lists fentanyl as a Schedule II controlled substance “that is similar to morphine but about 100 times more potent.” Depending on a person’s body, even two milligrams, which is less than a grain of salt, can be lethal.
Our thoughts and prayers go to the Harrison family.
Rest in peace, Adam.
Incredible Rescue: Hero Dog Saves Lives and Gets a Second Chance
Do you think canines can truly be heroes? Introducing Ivy, an 18-year-old terrier mix who showed that she possesses a brave and loving heart. When Ivy first arrived on June 2 at the Smith County Animal Shelter in Texas, she had no idea that her deeds would make her a true hero dog.
Dogs can donate blood to help those in need, just like people can. Because of her blood type, Ivy can donate blood to anyone, which makes her a priceless asset to the shelter. She generously gave blood, saving the lives of several canines in critical need of transfusions. Ivy is a dog who is certainly worth praising because of her bravery and compassion.
But in spite of her noble deeds, Ivy was put in a terrible predicament. She was in danger of dying since no one wanted to adopt her. That’s correct, this incredible hero dog was just a few minutes away from being put to sleep. It’s unbelievable that Ivy met with such a terrible end after sparing so many lives.
Nevertheless, Ivy’s story made it to the local news station CBS19 because of the perseverance and kindness of Pearl Wittholt, a volunteer with Saving Animals from Euthanasia in Texas. Pearl aspired to rescue Ivy’s life and give her the second chance she so richly earned with the help of the community and the media.
CBS19 has already volunteered to support a hero dog. They already told the tale of Stanford, a different blood-donating dog who met a similar end, earlier this year. The community came together to save Stanford, and he was adopted. Pearl believed that Ivy could experience the same thing.
And indeed, miracles do occur! The media attention paid off, as CBS19 revealed an encouraging update: Ivy had found her forever home. This brave dog was saved from death and given the opportunity to live out her last years in a loving home because of the amazing support of the community.
However, the tale is not over yet. Three more heroic canines are currently at the Smith County Animal Shelter, waiting for their permanent homes, as reported by CBS19. It’s our chance to prevent these courageous dogs from suffering the same destiny that Ivy just barely avoided. These dogs continue to save lives. Together, let’s think about giving these amazing heroes access to our homes and hearts.
There should never be a chance that a dog, particularly one who has saved so many lives, will be put down. The touching relationship people have with their animal companions is brought to light by Ivy’s narrative. She is safe and sound in her new home, which is nice, but more needs to be done.
Let’s tell everyone about this amazing news of Ivy’s second chance. By working together, we can improve the lives of these heroic canines and make sure they receive the affection and attention they need.
