Ronald Jay Adams, 73, passed away peacefully, on April 8, 2022, following a five-year battle with cancer. He was a miracle man as far as the doctors were concerned and fought his battle as courageously as one could, rarely complaining and always just trying to find a way to beat the disease.

Ronnie was born in NY to his parents, Norman and Lillian Adams (both predeceased) and was the youngest of five siblings - Joyce (predeceased), Stephen (predeceased), Harvey, and twin brother, Donnie (predeceased). He went to Hewlett High School and was a graduate of the United States Merchant Marine Academy at King's Point, where he played football with his brothers, Donnie and Harvey. He married Terrie Glanzman Dopler in 1977, and they had three daughters, Alise, Summer, and Norelle, who were the light of his life.

Ronnie always had an optimistic outlook on life and was loved by all who had the pleasure of knowing him. His "family first" attitude never waived, and he lived every day for his kids and grandchildren. He loved to take family vacations, tell the same funny stories over and over again, and just to be surrounded by his family whenever he had the chance.

Ronnie is survived by his three daughters, Alise Tyler (Chris), Summer Fatzinger (Kim), and Norelle Adams (Anthony), his brother, Harvey Adams, as well as his grandchildren whom he adored, Jett Tyler, Avery and Parker Fatzinger and Addie Harper-Harrison and fur granddogs, Chloe, Luna, Horatio and Justa.

May his memory be a blessing to all who knew him. He'll be deeply missed and forever in our hearts.
