Born Jan. 11, 1951, in Fairfield, Mr. Adams was the son of Ben and Angelina Adams. In 1974, the U.S. Air Force stationed him in Alaska. During his seven-year career, he was a C-130 aircraft mechanic specialist. He was a disabled Vietnam-era veteran. His family writes: "He installed Smokeeters all over Alaska. He was known by many businesses around Anchorage during the 1980s. "His skills and talents were remarkable. He was not just a jack-of-all-trades, but the 'jackpot' of all trades. "He had the honor of holding the challenging title of 'Mr. Mom' during the last nine years of his life while his wife worked for the Department of Fish and Game. He was a warm-hearted family man. He spent every Father's Day fishing for king salmon with his family at Willow Creek." Mr. Adams is survived by his mother, Angelina Adams of Kentucky; wife, Leslie Adams of Wasilla; stepson, Chevi Perry of Wasilla; daughters, Danielle and Cynthia Adams of Wasilla; brothers, Bob Adams of Mobile, Ala., and Frank Adams of Louisville, Ky.; sisters, Jane Noel of Fairfield, Mary Tackett of Lawrenceberg, Ky., Cecelia Lewis of Tennessee; and many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and friends. He was preceded in death by his father, Ben R. Adams; and daughters, Michelle Adams and her premature twin sister.
