Patricia Adams Obituary

Patricia Ann Adams

Lebanon, NH - It is with profound sadness that the family of Patricia Ann (Stone) Adams announces her passing on October 12, 2025. She died peacefully at the age of 89 at her home on Ascutney View Farm in Lebanon, surrounded by the love of her family.

Born in Montague City, Massachusetts, on August 8, 1936, to the late Roland and Barbara (Dannel) Stone, Patricia spent most of her childhood on her parents' farm on Whitaker Road in Meriden, NH, and was a 1955 graduate of Lebanon High School.

As the eldest of seven children, she learned early the values of hard work, compassion, and quiet strength-qualities that guided her throughout her life. Following her marriage to Elwin "Mike" Rogers in 1955, the couple raised five daughters together before his passing in 1972. In 1974, she married Carl Adams, and together they welcomed another daughter, completing a blended family bound by deep love and devotion.

Patricia worked tirelessly to provide for her family, holding positions at the Newbridge Restaurant and later with the Lebanon School District Food Service Program and SAU 32 Superintendent's Office. She was admired for her dedication, kindness, and warm spirit.

An active member of the First Baptist Church of Lebanon, she also contributed to community organizations including the Blow-Me-Down Grange, NH State Grange, and Lebanon Garden Club. A talented quilter and seamstress, she lovingly created handmade quilts for each of her children and grandchildren.

Patricia is survived by her six daughters: Linda Nash (Dan), Kathy Girard (Tim), Darlene Sciolino (Mike), Donna Rogers, Tina Bagley (Joe), and Susan Cole (Eric); 11 grandchildren; 10 great-grandchildren; her sister Sylvia Clark (Harold); brother Charles Stone (Lauren); sisters-in-law Bonnie Stone, Fay Rogers; brother-in-law Richard Swett; and many beloved nieces and nephews.

She was predeceased by her husbands, Elwin "Mike" Rogers (1972) and Carl Adams (2019); grandson Billy Girard; siblings Nancy Evans, Marcia Swett, Robert Stone, and Roland "Jimmy" Stone; and in-laws Wendell Rogers (Nancy), Addie Barton (Larry), and Fred Rogers.

Calling hours will be held Monday, October 20, from 4 to 6 p.m. at Ricker Funeral Home in Lebanon. A funeral service will follow Tuesday, October 21, at 11 a.m. at the First Baptist Church of Lebanon, followed by a graveside committal.
