Mrs. Adams was a devoted Christian, wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and a friend to anyone who needed her. She was proudly employed at Walmart for almost 30 years and was recognized and remembered by scores of people as “the Walmart Lady”.

Her family would like to offer a special thanks to the staff at The Village at The Glen Retirement System for their kindness and care.
