Kerry Duane Adams, 57, of Kalispell, passed away Aug. 4, 2011.

Our beloved son was born to Jerry and Joann Adams at Madigan Army Hospital in Tacoma, Wash., on April 3, 1954. He graduated from Flathead High School in 1972.

He worked for Western Building Center and did carpentry and home improvement projects for friends and family.

His recreational interests were riding and restoring motorcycles, playing guitar and singing with his friends around campfires.

His father, Jerry, preceded him in death; as did grandparents, Bob and Ruth Adams, and Fred Grob.

Kerry is survived by his mother, Joann Adams, of Kalispell; brothers, Scott, Kirby and Denyne, of Kalispell; Brent and Sandra of Coarsegold, Calif.; nieces, Sarah, Kayla, Miranda, Shelby and Chelsea; grandmother, Lillian Hollenbeck; aunts, Betty and Bill Turner of Dayton, Wash., and Barbara of Texas; and uncle, Bob and Shirley Adams of Columbia Falls.

The family suggests memorial contributions be made to the charity of their choice or to the Flathead Food Bank.
