Richard Adam Obituary
Dick is survived by his son, Richard L. Adam, and his wife Carol J. Adam; granddaughter, Christina M. Nicholson; three great-grandchildren, Dalton, Davien, and Starria; and his brother Joseph Adam.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Herman A. Adam and Marquetta L. (Glasgow) Adam; and his wife Judith L. (Seabolt) Adam.
Dick was born in Blain City, PA and entered the military after graduation. Upon return home, he married the love of his life in 1964. Dick was a lover of all things fast and fun, but his true passion was planes. A pilot himself, Dick owned and flew several ultralight airplanes over the years. He loved his family and enjoyed time with his friends, including his time spent at the American Legion and his weekly breakfast. Dick was truly a one-of-a-kind man and will be greatly missed by those who knew him.
Family will receive friends 9-11 a.m. Tuesday at Kruise-Spewock Funeral & Cremation Services, Madera. Interment with military honors will follow in Beulah Cemetery, Ramey.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the American Legion Freeberg Post #591, 610 Good St., Houtzdale, PA 16651.
Condolences may be made at www.kruise-spewock.com.
