Scot E Adams

Scot Edward Adams, 66 years old, died peacefully at the Hospice of the Chesapeake on Saturday, January 8, 2022. Scot was born in Casper, Wyoming on July 18, 1955 to Murrel (Pete) E. Adams and Barbara L. Adams (Jackson). In 1967 his family moved from Casper to Silver Spring, Maryland near Washington, DC. He lived in the DC area for the remainder of his life, raising his family in Fairfax, Virginia, then most recently residing in Annapolis, Maryland. Scot graduated from Montgomery Blair High School, Silver Spring, Maryland in 1973. Throughout his High School years he enjoyed being a part of the Montgomery Blair Wrestling Team. During his Senior year, Scot captured the Maryland State Heavyweight Wrestling Championship! Over the years Scot held many different positions with The Journal Newspapers Company where he started his career as a truck driver and a heavy machine operator. After over 20 years with The Journal, Scot, like so many folks here in the D.C. Metropolitan area, found his way into the Information Technology industry holding a multitude of positions with several companies including truck driver, IT equipment buyer, operations manager and warehouse manager where he retired from Graybar Electric after sustaining a career-ending injury. Scot loved to spend his time traveling and taking road trips, and had avid interests in woodworking and cooking. He loved trying new recipes and showing off his skills in the kitchen. Most of all, he was quite an animated storyteller, always captivating those who surrounded him and always keeping the crowds laughing. Anyone who had the privilege of knowing Scot couldn’t help but feed off of his infectious smile and booming voice that kept you coming back for more. He was always open-hearted and helped those in need whenever he could. Many looked up to him as a father figure and openly loved him as such, always joking that he had adopted them as one of his own. Scot was predeceased by his parents and two brothers; Ronald James Adams from Casper, Wyoming and Larry Alan Adams from Goldsboro, Pennsylvania, as well as numerous aunts and uncles across Wyoming and Montana. Scot is survived by four adult children. A son by his first marriage, Kenneth James Adams and his wife Danielle of Denver, Colorado. A stepson and two daughters by his second marriage; Zachary Sean Monirzad and his Step-Grandson, Beau Sterling Jones-Monirzad of Charleston, South Carolina; Rebecca Gail Mairs and her husband Louis Mairs of Culpeper, Virginia; and Audrey Lynn Adams and her Significant Other Evan Schauss of Chantilly, Virginia. Scot is also survived by a sister, Judy and Steve Russalesi of Montague, New Jersey and a brother, Timothy and Patty Adams of Edgewater, Maryland. Scot is also survived by many Cousins, a bevy of Nephews, Nieces, Grand Nieces and Grand Nephews and a Great Grand Nephew across these United States. Scot will be sorely missed by his family and the many friends he has been blessed with over the years, especially those who adopted Scot with love into the Bay Forest Community in Annapolis, Maryland. He will be missed, but never forgotten!
