Mrs. Bobbie Adams, a native of Laurel, Mississippi, and longtime resident of Mobile, Alabama, was called home to rest from her labor on June 24, 2018.
Known affectionately as “Molly,” she was born to the union of the late O.D. Adams and Vadis Adams Cole on January 29, 1936. She was the oldest of 14 brothers and sisters.

For more than 30 years, Mrs. Adams taught in the Mobile County Public School System; she also later taught at St. James Catholic School and cared for children at her home day care center.
Mrs. Adams was a faithful member of Toulminville Warren United Methodist Church, where she served in numerous capacities at the church, including working at the church’s child day care center.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Jimmie D. Adams; parents; three sisters, Rosetta, Joyce and Nancy; and two brothers, O.D. and Timothy; and sister-in-law, Ann Adams.
She leaves to cherish loving memories, two daughters, Edra Adams and Lanni (Robert) Jones, both of Texas; one son, James Adams of Mobile, Alabama; other children Jimmie McMillion and Shirley Weaver; four grandchildren, Javia Adams, Ja’Kaylee Adams, James Adams, Jr., and Haileigh Raine Jones; three brothers, Earl Cole, William (Betsy) Cole and Joseph Cole, all of Mobile, AL; three sisters, Florence (A.C.)
