Obituary of Albert Adams

Albert Warren Adams of Tucson, Arizona died peacefully at home on July 19, 2021 at the age of 71.  Born in Boone, North Carolina to Dean and Martha Adams, Al moved to Tucson in 2005 to enjoy retirement and be closer to his children and grandchildren. 

Al is a proud veteran of the Army, having served 25 years for his country.  His service to the military allowed him to see the world to include multiple tours in Germany as well as a year spent in Korea.  During his first tour in Germany in 1970, he met Ingeborg Ellen Reichert who he later married after only 5 months of dating.  In November 2020, Al and Inge celebrated their 50 year wedding anniversary, a milestone few people meet these days. 

Al loved reading, taking his daily walks, and above all family.  He was a devoted husband, a caring father, and was beloved by many.  Al loved to stay engaged and always went out of his way to help others.   Even at the end he helped his neighbors, worked at home and stayed active despite his pain.   i

Al is survived by his wife Ingeborg Adams, daughter Jennie Miler, son Brian Adams, his sisters  Carol Hicks, Joyce Moser, and Dee Dee Mullins, brother Roy Adams, 6 grandchildren, 1 great-grandchild and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and in-laws. 

A memorial service has been scheduled for July 22 at 2:00 pm, at Adair Funeral Home Avalon Chapel (8090 North Northern Avenue, Oro Valley, AZ 85704).  Guests are also invited to the Adams Household (3342 West Donovan Drive, Tucson, AZ 85742) immediately following the service to share stories and celebrate Al’s life.
