Born March 28, 1978, in Victoria, BC, died May 13, 2024. Adam will be unimaginably missed by his wife Kyla, and his children Henry and Dehlia; his grandma Zena Milne; his mother Eileen Torgeson (Dyne) and his father Ian Flint (Terry); his brother Matt Flint (Melissa); his in-laws Jim and Penny Doswell; and so many other close family and friends. Adam was a great partner and friend, but he was the best dad. Adam loved being in nature and found pure joy camping with his children. He was generous with his time and volunteered with many organizations in his community. Adam loved a good hobby, and he excelled in leatherwork, ensuring everyone had a gorgeous handbag or wallet. His sharp, dry sense of humour and warm heart will be greatly missed.
A celebration to honour Adam’s great life will be held in the Sequoia Centre at McCall Gardens, 4665 Falaise Drive, on June 29, 2024, at 2:00 pm, and we invite all who knew and loved him to attend.
Condolences may be offered to the family below.

Sorry to hear about your son. I can still remember my dad getting a kick out of playing with Adam while Ian was building our log cabin.My thoughts are with you.
I heard the news through friends. Though I had lost touch over the years, Adam and Kyla were key figures in my early parenting life. Adam was a devoted dad who prioritized parenting. He had a gentle way to him and was warm and welcoming. He cared deeply about his family and his community and I remember the care he was taking to upgrade so that he and Kyla could provide more opportunities to his family and buy a home in Victoria. I am thinking of you all.
I met Adam in 2017. I was so impressed by his kindness and sense of humor. We have lost one of the good guys. May the Flint family find strength in each other during this time.
Our deepest condolences to all of Adam’s family and friends. Russell and I hold you in our hearts and you wish strength and peace as you face this painful loss. Much love.
To Kyla and her family,
I never got to know Adam well but I did grow up with Kyla and her parents
(Classic girl guide )
I unfortunately know all too well of loosing a loved one so quickly, just
Know that Adam will always be looking after all of you.
Time does heal, remember the good times and remember that there are people who surround all of you with open arms and love.
Adam will be missed by those who knew him well and those who may haven’t, but keep this in mind that no one will ever forget him.
No words, just incredibly heartbroken to hear of Adam’s passing. While we did not know Adam, our son Blair Desjardins and Kyla grew up together and for a time were inseparable. We spent many happy occasions with Jim and Penny and Kyla. Kyla was a wonderful girl and the light of her parents life. I know that she would have chosen a partner who was good and kind and loving and it appears from reading about Adam that he was a wonderful husband and father. Know that our hearts go out to Adam’s whole
family and most especially to Kyla, their children and to Penny and Jim. Deepest regards, Shyrl and Michael Kennedy.
Heartbreaking to learn of Adam’s sudden death. My sincere condolences goes out to Kyla and their children and all the family and friends that were a part of Adam‘s life. I was fortunate to have met Adam through work and through his wife Kyla. He had this genuine authentic way of bringing people together and making you feel a part of something that would impact others in a positive way. I remember the year he welcomed a group of coworkers to the Movember campaign as we all taped on moustaches to our upper lip. Adam’s commitment to others was tremendous and greatly appreciated. I know we will all do our best to honour his legacy and keep his efforts going. Thank you Adam for all that you did and inspired the rest of us to do. Mena.
I cannot begin to express how profoundly saddened I am. An incredible father & friend, immensely resourceful, endless inspiring, and so so funny. Adam was a beacon of light in a dark world. For as little as his light touched me and uplifted my spirit, I can’t imagine the sense of loss that his closest loved ones feel. His goodness and generosity were rare gifts. I feel so blessed to have shared a small length of that path and to have learned. I ache to know that my heartbreak is just raindrop in the ocean when compared to those who were closer to his warmth. My deepest sympathy to Adam’s family. Our time together is so precious.
So sorry to hear this news. Adam was a great guy.
My deepest condolences.
I have no words to explain how very much he will be missed.
Worked along side of him at Saanich & he was truly a joy to work with.
He was my favourite co-worker….so kind, thoughful & generous.
I’m so sorry for your loss Kyla, Henry & Dehlia.
