Timothy Earl Adam

Timothy Earl Adam, 75, passed away on March 22, 2026, with his wife and children by his side. He was born on July 21, 1950, the son of the late Joseph Merle and Violet Hope Adam (McNeal). He graduated from Snider High School, in 1968.

During his early career, Tim worked at Gerber Baby Food as a salesman and later at Holsum Bakery for 28 years, as a Route Salesman.

He was a very giving and caring man, that loved spending time with his family. He taught his children to be independent. He blessed them with a good work ethic and the ability to do their own home maintenance and car repair. He was the best supervisor anyone could ask for!

Tim was a Harley and car guy and was very proud of his Sportster and his 1957 Oldsmobile. He enjoyed traveling to car shows, playing euchre, NASCAR, the Chicago Bears, and family barbecues.

He was an outgoing guy that was easy to pick out of any crowd, with his full gray beard, which he was very proud of.

He is survived by his wife, Linda Adam of Fort Wayne, IN; children, Max Smith of Atlanta, GA; Sara Adam, Kelly Adam, Megan Adam all of Fort Wayne, IN; brother, Terry (Chris) Adam of Goshen, IN; grandchildren, Chandler Adam, Cordell Roberson, Corwynn Roberson, and Ilaria “Turdy Bird” Winn.
