I remember cousin Bob singing and playing guitar at Adams family reunions, he was such a good sweet man. Rest now
To Connie and all the Adams family: I send you my prayers and thoughts. May Our Lord remind you that your husband and Dad is in a place of perfect and everlasting happiness with Him. Remember that death is only a beginning, and you will all be joyfully together again in God’s Kingdom. Claire Daniels
This picture was taken the day we found out that he had cancer and we moved him into our house. My daughters put these ear muffs on and he didn’t know what they were doing but he made this face just to be silly. Like this image because it shows the fun side of his personality. Christi
What a fun memory to have. So sorry to hear of his passing. I remember way back when he drove you and Jen to school when you were just first graders! He was a great guy. So sorry we can’t make it back to Kansas for his service. Rose
Rest Robert, until you hear at dawn, the low, clear reveille of God. Thank you for your service to this nation. Army National Guard.
Whenever cousin Bob showed up at our house it was always fun. Remembering his creative humor just makes me smile. As a kid, he further defined for me what it meant to be an “”Adams”. RIP
I have enjoyed reconnecting with Bob and all the Ta cousins the past few years on our way thru from Memphis. One of the fondest memory is when my Dad died Bob telling me how hard it is to lose your Dad. And if I ever needed to talk to call him. He was such a kind heart.

My deepest condolences to the entire Adams family. I only met Bob a handful of times- but he was such a warm person- very friendly. One thing that stood out was his love of his grandchildren . He was very playful and attentive- you could see he adored them all. It was also pretty obvious which of his own kids was his favorite… although he loved them all.
