I knew Adrian when he was an SSA in the San Jose FBI office and I was a federal prosecutor. We worked on several cases together and then, later, we worked together when he was a PI and I was a private attorney. Adrian was an outstanding investigator and a great friend. Ace had a wonderfully dry sense of humor, a quick wit and a keen insight into people. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Ace and was proud to call him my friend. Rest in Peace, Adrian.

You were one of the great ones!

I only knew him as Mr. Coulter as I was a high school kid dating his daughter. Needless to say, he was quite intimidating to me as he was a quiet "big guy" with a gun and a badge in the days of Dirty Harry (he looked very much like Clint Eastwood to me then), but he would let a smile slip in once in a while and I knew I was safe, at least for the day. Seriously, he was a truly kind gentleman who commanded respect and I'm a better man for knowing him. Rest peacefully, Mr. Coulter.
