Jack N. Adams, born on the 27th of May, 1954, in Athol, Massachusetts, passed away on the 5th of December 2025, at the age of 71. Jack resided and raised his family in Orange, Massachusetts. Jack was aptly described as a Jack of all trades and was admired for his ability to fix anything.
He was a man of diverse interests. He found joy in racing R/C cars, bird watching, spending time at the beach, and watching his favorite WWE superstars and the Patriots. His favorite activity was camping with both his friends of NAFCA and his family. One of his favorite sayings was always, “See you around the campfire.”
Jack was a loving husband to Donna Adams and a devoted father to his daughters, Angela Adams and her husband, Christopher Brown, Heather Adams, Samantha Adams, and Sarah Adams, and her husband, Adam Curtis. He was also a loving grandfather, aka “Pops” to Alyssah Spofford, Jameson Loper, and Kayla Legare. His siblings, Carol Ballou and her husband Roger, Russell Adams and his wife Cathy, and Patricia O'Brien and her husband Joe, survive him. Jack was predeceased by his parents, Wilbur and Marie Adams, along with several siblings. What mattered most to Jack was his family, and he leaves behind a legacy filled with love, dedication, and resilience. The funeral service will be held on Friday, December 12, 2025, at 12 noon.
