Edwin Adams Memoriam

In Loving Memory Edwin Ewell Adams On June 12, 2008, Edwin Ewell Adams ascended into heaven high above the skies. His calling on earth was farming, which he dearly loved. From boyhood, he worked the fields and pastures of the Cold Harbor farm begun by his father's grandfather. For over 50 years, he was the loving and devoted husband to Mary Beth. He was an exemplary father and grandfather, raising his son on the "ways and gentle kindness of a small town Southern man." Mr. Adams was always a gentleman, showing grace and respect to everyone. This good man, we are certain today experiences "power and glory forever." With love always, Mary Beth, David and Christi, David Jr., Caroline and Reagan

Mary Beth and Family, You're lost was great, his presence in the neighborhood has been missed. I will never forget the day you were following him on 295. You were trying to tell him to pull over or that his green truck was smoking like a chimney. I really don't know what was happening but you had it under control. I think? May God bless you and your family.
