On Thursday, April 12, 2012, our Father called his son Bennie home to reunite with his late wife Edna Kirby Adams and to watch over his family from afar. Bennie Adams began a wonderful life on May 7, 1922 in Birmingham, Alabama where he was the first son born to the late Lucille Adams.
Bennie Adams supported his family for many years by working as an incredibly talented crane operator. Bennie lived a full life filled with many journeys which brought joy and happiness to his beloved family. He recognized Powell Chapel United Methodist Church as his home church.
Along with his wife, Edna Kirby Adams and mother, Lucille Adams, Bennie is also reunited with: his two sons, Jackie Adams and Byron Adams; brother, Eugene Story and sister, Mary L. Adams Perry, who preceded him in death.
Aside from the countless incredible memories, Bennie has also left behind the following beloved family members: niece, Barbara; two grandsons Sill and Neal; five granddaughters, Phoebe, Yana, Tennille, Phoebe and Leslie; numerous great-grandchildren and loving members of the Kirby Family; Parks Family; Conerly Family as well as his many, many supportive friends.
Romans 14:7-9
None of us lives to himself, and none of us dies to himself. If we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord; so then, whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord's. For to this end Christ died and lived again, that he might be Lord both of the dead and of the living
Safely Home
I am home in heaven, dear ones; oh, so happy and so bright! There is a perfect joy and beauty in the everlasting light. All the pain and grief is over, every restless tossing passed; I am now at peace forever, safely home in heaven at last. There is work still waiting for you, so you must not idly stand, do it now, while life remaineth– you shall rest in God's own land. When that work is all completed, He will gently call you home; oh, the rapture of that meeting oh, the joy to see you come.
