Curtis “Curt” Ray Adams, 84, passed away peacefully in his sleep on July 4, 2023.  Curt was born November, 18, 1938 in Lesterville, MO to Ray and Gwendolyn (nee Chadbourne) Adams, and is preceded in death by his parents, his sisters Rosemary Adams and Carol Upchurch, and his brother Dale Adams.  He is survived by his daughters, Robin Adams (Dan Althoff), Tracey Adams and Melanie Adams, grandchildren Jeff (Teresa) Clauss, Lindsay Clauss, and Andrew Piry, sister Marilyn Woods, brother Stanley “Brent” Adams, one niece and several nephews.

Curt resided at Bethesda Southgate for several years before his death, and the family would like to thank the caregivers there for their friendship and for taking care of their Dad.  They would also like to express their gratitude to the staff at Fresnius for taking such good care of their Dad while he received his dialysis treatments. 

A private burial will be held at Rayfield Cemetery

    “Employers should care about their employees, and employees should care about their employers.” Curtis Ray Adams. Curt was an altruist.

    Curtis was always “a hoot”, sharing (or making) humor — cut out of the “ordinary” of day to day life. His passing leaves “a void” behind.

    Curtis “Cheeto” as he called himself and got us calling him that too, just put his imprint on and in all of our hearts hear at Fresenius Tesson Ferry. To say we loved Cheeto was an understatement. Our dialysis unit is not the same without him here. We already miss him and his sweet smile and humor! Thank you for sharing him with us! He will not be forgotten!

    Oh Cheeto we sure miss you at the clinic. What an incredible human being. He was and will always be our little buddy. Everyone loved him. Rest in peace and may you have all the sprite, Cheetos and Pizza Hut pizza your heart desires. ❤️

    Praying for you all. I think of you all often.
