Frank Samuel Adams

Frank Samuel Adams, 86, of La Grange died Sept. 30, 2018. A memorial service for Frank will be held at a later date. Frank was an imperfect man with a perfect loving heart. Frank was born on Jan. 13, 1932 to Samuel and Mary Schindler in Pittsburgh, Pa. He lived in the La Grange area for the past 20 years. He served his country in the army during the Korean Conflict. Before his time in the army, he worked as a chemist. He loved his dogs and helping others in need. Frank always had a smile, joke, hug or an old story to tell. He was a pro boxing official. He loved working retail for the times with people and his last job was at O’Reily Auto Parts in La Grange. He traveled with his wife Norma near and far. Frank is survived by wife of 50 plus years, Norma Adams; daughter Denisia Ann and Gunter (G-man); son, Vincent Lee and wife Kathy; sister, Carolyn Sampson Olsen; cousin, Tottie Whitaker and husband Paul; son, Jim, Blaise, Frank and Billy; many granddaughters and grandsons and numerous nieces and nephews. If we forgot to mention you as a survivor I am sorry, we just lost Frank. He was preceded in death by his parents; infant son Michael; grandparents; uncle Frank Schindler; aunt Thelmia (Nana) Shindler; stepfather James Sampson; cousin Sue Hensley; cousin Janie Hooker; and uncle Russ Kight along with many friends. Frank requested that in his memory everyone do a good deed (pay it forward) for his family, friends or a stranger.
