Rick Harrison, the creator of the hit show “Pawn Stars,” shared a memorial for his son Adam, who reportedly died at the age of 39 last Friday.

Harrison shared a photo of him and his son on Instagram, days after it was reported that Adam Harrison had died.

“You will always be in my heart! I love you Adam,” Harrison wrote, with a broken-heart emoji.

KLAS reported about the death on Friday after receiving a statement from Harrison’s family saying they were “extremely saddened by the death of Adam.”

A spokesperson for the family confirmed to the Las Vegas Review-Journal that Adam Harrison’s death was from an overdose.

Many shared their condolences for Harrison and his family, including Donald Trump Jr., who commented on the post.

“I’m so sorry man,” Trump Jr. wrote.

The family had been present on the show “Pawn Stars” since 2009. Rick Harrison started the reality show with his father, Richard, who died in 2018. The show followed the family at their Las Vegas pawn shop, and also starred Corey Harrison, Adam’s older brother, and Austin “Chumlee” Russell, Corey Harrison’s childhood friend.

Adam never appeared in the series.

Corey shared his own post for his younger brother, posting a picture of them as children in the bathtub.

“I will always love you bubba,” he wrote.
