George Henry Adams

2023. He worked for the State of FL as a maintenance man in the Collins and the
Gray State Government Bldgs. in Tallahassee, where he retired.
He was quite a joker and could really spin a tale. He had the memory of an
elephant. It was hard to get away when he started talking. He enjoyed walking,
fishing, and reading, as well as music, and meeting new people. It was often said
that George had never met a person he couldn't talk to and get to know.
George was engaged to Maria Christina, of Batangas, Philippines. He was
preceded in death by his Mom and Dad, and brother Donnie. Surviving him are his
brother Chris, of North Bend, OR and sister Debbie (Michael) Robertus, of Wichita
Falls, TX; 7 nieces and nephews; 13 grand nieces and nephews; and 7 great-grand
nieces and nephews.
He had requested to be cremated and his ashes will be scattered over the farm.

Rest in Peace, George!
