Kevin Frank Adams, 57, of Smiths Station, AL entered Heaven Sunday, September 19, 2021.
Funeral Services will be held 11:00 AM (EST) on Wednesday, September 22, 2021 at Philadelphia Baptist Church with Rev. Skip Speed officiating. Interment will follow in the church cemetery. The family will receive friends on Tuesday from 6:00 till 8:00 PM at Vance Brooks Funeral Home, Phenix City.
Mr. Adams was born November 19, 1963 in Columbus, GA son of Frank Adams (Carol) and the late Mildred “Mickey” Waldrop Timbes, who affectionately called him, her “Sun Shine Boy”. He was an engineer by trade working at Cherokee Fabrications for many years and before that at Lummus. Kevin enjoyed using his engineering skills to create homes, mountain bike trails, and various other projects. One of his key accomplishments was being the designer of the clock tower at Columbus State University. A man who was never idle, he enjoyed numerous outdoor activities to include mountain biking, fishing both fresh water and salt water, hunting, water skiing and watching Alabama Football, Roll Tide! Kevin was also a meticulous mechanic and antique car enthusiast. He enjoyed worshiping at his home church, Philadelphia Baptist in Smiths Station, AL. He will be remembered as a man of faith, strong character, and being a gifted mechanical engineer. We will miss him, but his design projects and his impression on our lives will live on forever.
Survivors include his wife, Kathy Darline Adams, Smiths Station, AL; two daughters, Candy Savarese (Chris) and Haley Henderson (David); one sister, Valorie Harbour (Charles); six special grandchildren, Alex, Zack, Blaine, Logan, Cooper and Colten; special cousins, Tim Adams, Julie Thomas, Janie Jenkins and Katie Boswell; many other family members and friends.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in his memory to, Philadelphia Baptist Church, 7807 Lee County Rd 246, Smiths Station, AL 36877.

Sincerest condolences to Kevin’s wife, children, grandchildren, father, friends and cousins, most especially, his cousin Tim Adams, my son in law. Kevin was the Best Man at the wedding of his cousin Tim to my daughter Laura. All of us knew just how much Tim loved Kevin and how he much he enjoyed their time together. Tim frequently spoke about Kevin and told stories about their growing up years. Tim loved Kevin like a brother, and we know that his heart is truly broken as everyone’s in the family must be. We send our prayers and love to this part of our extended family. How I wish that I could change this. We love Tim so very much and knowing how badly he has been hurt makes Kevin’s sudden passing so much worse. May Kevin Rest In Peace and may everyone whose life Kevin touched remember all that was good and find the strength to cope with this devastating family loss !💔🙏

To the Adams Family,
This will sound strange, I did not know Kevin personally, but something led me to read his obituary. The Clock-Tower has always been my favorite spot at the College, or at least since it has been there. I just wanted to acknowledge his beautiful work; Thank you Kevin Adams ! May God Bless you all during this time of grief.

We met Kevin when he was around 13 years old when Frank met Carol. Every weekend we were up at the river and skiing. He loved being on the water. We got to know him and Valorie when they joined our family. We were so proud of the man he became. We talked about cars a lot on Facebook. He loved that blue Chevelle.
He will be missed. There’s an empty place in our family. But we know he’s with God and that will give us comfort.
