Celebration of Life
We celebrate the Life of Nancy Lee Adams, one of the founders of Clinton Fence
She'll be missed and in our hearts forever.
Nancy Lee Adams age 87, of Gloucester, Virginia passed away peacefully surrounded by family on March 14, 2024. Nancy was born on June 16, 1936, to the late Howard Rhodes and Daisy (Williams) Rhodes.
Nancy began her career working at the Census Bureau in Suitland Maryland until she met her husband, the late Wesley Jackson (Jay) Adams. In 1957 they began selling and installing storm doors and windows. As the business grew, they added the installation of fences and decks and established Clinton Fence Co. Nancy handled the administrative duties while Jay handled the operations of the business.
Nancy was blessed with four children, Wesley Adams Jr., Wendy King, Wanda Delaney (Michael), and Renee Ketter (Chuck), 10 grandchildren, Jamie Quade (Phil), Anthony King (Beth), Robert King, John Hirst, Carly Fagan (Wyatt), Jessica Hirst, Miranda Delaney, and six Great Grandchildren. She will be remembered by her Children and Grandchildren; each would say that they were her favorite. Her family and friends will remember her kindness, quick wit, and sense of humor.
Nancy loved Jesus, her family, cross-stitching, and life. She also liked to travel and was a private pilot.
Nancy was predeceased by her sisters Shirley Rivenbark, Lorena Houck (Frank), Delores Smith, Half Brothers Robert Williams, Elmer Rhodes, her son Wesley Jackson Adams Jr., and former husband Wesley Jackson Adams Sr.
