John Thomas Adams

John graduated from Sebastian River High School, Class of 2007. While in high school, he played football, was a member of the “Yes, I Can” club, and was very proud to be a part of the Automotive Academy.

John’s Autism did not allow him to have a career, however he loved to mow lawns in his neighborhood. He was always looking for ways to be helpful. He helped others by fixing mowers, doing yardwork, and helping with any tasks his family, friends or neighbors needed. John enjoyed fishing, tinkering with small engines, going to Sharks games and spending time with family and friends.

John was a kind and caring man who always found creative ways to overcome the obstacles of his disability. He loved dressing up for Halloween, scaring people, and giving out candy. John loved all animals.

John is predeceased by Maternal grandfather Carlos Bedsole, Paternal grandparents Joseph and Pauline Adams, brother Joseph Labyron Adams. He is survived by Grandmother Sarah Bedsole, Mother Debra Bedsole, Uncle Don (Bonita) Bedsole, Aunt Denise (Kevin) Brzozowski, Uncle David (Melissa) Bedsole, Sister Robin (Robbie) Kinchen, Brother James (Megan Foster) Adams, Niece Cheyenne Kinchen, and multiple beloved cousins.
