A Farewell at Sea – Honoring Wendell Adams

In life, some souls carry a warmth that can light up an entire room. From the smile on his face to the kindness in his heart, Wendell Adams was one of those rare souls whose presence brought joy and comfort to everyone around him.

On August 1st, 2025, Wendell’s earthly journey came to a close. But his story, his laughter, and the memories he gifted to friends and family remain deeply etched in the hearts of all who knew him.

His life will be celebrated on Tuesday, August 12th, 2025 at Faith Temple Church, New Montrose. The day will begin with a viewing at 10:00 AM, followed by a service at 11:00 AM—a gathering not just to mourn, but to remember, honor, and give thanks for a life well-lived.

True to his love for the ocean, Wendell’s final resting place will be in the embrace of the sea. Following his cremation, his ashes will be committed to the waters—a symbolic return to nature, a final voyage into peace.

The image that accompanies this tribute captures Wendell exactly as many will remember him—smiling, full of life, and radiating joy. Adorned with soft floral accents, the memorial design carries both elegance and warmth, a visual echo of the man it represents.

As the tides carry his ashes beyond the horizon, so too will his spirit continue to ripple through the lives he touched. For those who loved Wendell, his story doesn’t end here—it lives on in laughter shared, lessons learned, and love unending.

Rest peacefully, Wendell. Your light will forever shine beyond the sunset.
