Adam R. Sherman

Adam R. Sherman, born on December 24, 1966, in Manhattan, NY, passed suddenly on June 16, 2024, at the age of 57 at his home in Port St. Lucie, FL. Adam dedicated his life to his family and career, leaving a lasting impact on both.

He was a devoted family man, known for his warm, welcoming personality and his knack for planning family activities, especially vacations like the family holiday to the rainforest of Costa Rica or riding ATV's in the country side. Adam's door was always open, reflecting his generous and loving nature. He was a die-hard Dallas Cowboys fan but also enjoyed attending Dolphins games with his family.

Professionally, Adam enjoyed a distinguished career with Costco starting in 1990 in Pompano, FL as a Cashier Assistant while a student at Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton, following graduation from South Broward High School in Hollywood, FL. He held several positions before moving to the Northeast as a Senior Manager in Waterbury and King of Prussia before being promoted to Assistant General Manager at Lancaster in 2001. He returned to the Southeast and held positions at Palm Beach Gardens, Royal Palm Beach and Boca Raton before being promoted to General Manager in the Northeast before returning to South Florida in 2020 as a General Manager.

Adam loved the opportunities, security and culture at Costco, greatly enhanced by his mentor Ed Wiegman, a man who influenced both Adam's personal and professional life.

Costco marked his passing with this: "Adam was a dedicated and devoted husband, a fiercely loving and exceptionally proud father, a travel enthusiast with his brother and a good friend to many in Costco. His bold personality and passion for living life to the fullest were some of Adam's best qualities."

Adam leaves behind his wife of eleven years, Stephanie, and his children: Joshua, David, and Elizabeth. He is survived by his brother Lloyd Sherman, sister-in-law Shannon, nephew Geoffrey all of Orlando as well as his first wife Lynn Sherman of Seattle, WA. He was preceded in death by his parents, Neil and Patricia Alaber Sherman.

His life was marked by his exuberant enthusiasm such as cheering Joshua on during an 80-yd touchdown run matching Josh's speed as he scrambled down the sidelines. Or David's memories of going shooting with his dad (David cherishes his first target sheet). And Beth's memory of Adam coming to see her race for the first time. After sharing a family dinner in a Mexican restaurant, Adam disappeared only to appear later back at the ranch leading the horse she had always wanted that he had trailered back from Arizona as a surprise. Adam found joy in riding ATVs out at River Ranch and spending time on movie outings as well as attending football games with his family. He attended services at both Calvary Chapel and Christ Fellowship near their home in Port St. Lucie, reflecting his community and spiritual engagements.

A celebration of Adam's life will be held at 1:00 PM on Friday, June 28th, at the Moose Lodge. 3600 RCA Blvd. in Palm Beach Gardens, FL.

His life was a testament to the love and dedication he had for his family and the Costco community, and he will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
