Daniel Adams

Daniel "Dan" Adams, 72, of Exton, PA, parted this life on March 30, 2025 to join his beloved wife Mary Ann, of 46 years.

Born on May 28, 1952, in Woodbury, NJ, to David and Eleanor Adams of Woodbury, Dan was the youngest of 6 siblings. He was a loving Husband, Dad, Pops, Brother, Uncle, and Friend.

Dan graduated from Malvern Prep and went on to attend Villanova University (Class of 1976) and earned his Masters degree from the Wharton School (Class of 2002). He spent the beginning of his professional career in the utility industry while also being a dedicated Navy Reservist. He spoke fondly about his time with the Navy as he felt a sense of duty in serving his country. It was in the Navy where he found his love and honed his skill for photography. He carried his camera with him everywhere; beach days, nights on the boardwalk in Ocean City, and vacations to Martha's Vineyard. Another passion of Dan's was baking. He was a master baker of his famous cinnamon raisin bread, a holiday tradition beloved by all.

A devoted Eagles, Phillies and Villanova Wildcats fan, Dan always enjoyed watching the game with family and friends. He also developed a vast knowledge of all things single malt scotch. His scotch bible was thoroughly marked up with notes of the date he tried a new single malt, what the occasion was, and who he enjoyed it with.

One of his favorite roles in life was becoming "Pops." Always ready, camera in hand, to document his grandkids, whether playing soccer, enjoying a meal or capturing candid moments.

He was predeceased by his wife Mary Ann Adams (Daly), parents, Eleanor (Schultes) and David Adams. He leaves behind three children, Matthew, Anne (Adams) Meads, and Kathleen Adams; daughter in law Jennifer Adams and son in law Andrew Meads; five grandchildren, Mae and Avett Meads and Emma, Bridget, and Julia Adams; his siblings David Jr, Donald, and Douglas Adams and sisters Connie Wasniewski, Mary Hopkins, in addition to many nieces and nephews.

A memorial service will be held at Marsh Creek Community Church, 101 Crump Road, Exton, PA on Friday, May 2 at 10:00 am.
