Kenneth L. Adams, age 67, died November 24, 2025, at Pass Christian, MS. He was born in Providence, RI. February 23, 1958, the Son of Herbert M and Alice M (Brown) Adams. While Ken was still an infant, the family moved back to Colby siding, Woodland, Maine

Kenneth lived life with independence, grit, and a deep appreciation for hard work. In his younger years, he enjoyed riding motorcycles, embracing the freedom of the open road and the adventure that came with it. A true jack of all trades, Kenneth was known as a natural problem-solver and a wheeler-dealer sort of guy, someone who could fix just about anything and always had a story or solution to share.

He proudly served his country in the United States Navy, an experience that shaped his strong sense of discipline, self-reliance, and loyalty — values he carried with him throughout his life.

Kenneth took great pride in his homestead, where he raised farm animals and lived a life rooted in independence and honest work. Working the land and caring for his animals brought him purpose and peace, reflecting his love for a simple, meaningful way of life.

He was preceded in death by his daughter, Lindsay Adams, and his parents, Herbert M. Adams III and Alice M. Adams (Brown), as well as his brother, Gregory C. Adams Sr.

Kenneth is survived by his son, Kenneth L. Adams II; his siblings Herbert M. Adams IV of Presque Isle, Maine, Kevin and Patty Adams Sr. of Caribou, Maine, and Tonja and Paul Flick of New Prague, Minnesota; and his cherished grandchildren Kanyon, Kenneth III, Hunter, and Jack. He also leaves behind many nieces and nephews who will forever hold him in their hearts.

Kenneth will be remembered for his resourcefulness, his independent spirit, his love of the land, and his proud service to his country. His legacy lives on through the family he loved and the life he built with his own hands.

Riemann Family Funeral Home, Gulfport, is honored to serve the Adams family.
