Mr. Adcox, fondly known by most as "Buddy", served in the US Army for 20 years and then worked with the Alabama Forestry Commission for 15 years. He had a zest for life and a great business mind. He enjoyed buying and selling antiques, art, tractors, cars, clocks, and land throughout the years. Buddy also enjoyed hunting, fishing, and working on his farm – planting trees, raising crops, goats, horses, rabbits, many chickens and the occasional pig. Buddy was a man of his word, courageous, disciplined, funny and practical. He hated waste, had an impeccable work ethic and was an independent thinker. He was a spiritual man and had a strong relationship with God. Buddy was also an amazing husband, beloved father and grandfather. He lived simply and happily with his wife of over 60 years with whom he raised a wonderful family and loved them all deeply and unconditionally.
