Stephen A. Adams

Stephen “Steve” A. Adams, 56, of Dawson, Pennsylvania passed away peacefully on January 11, 2026, after a brief illness.

He was born October 27, 1969, to John R. Adams, Dawson, Pennsylvania and to the late Bobby Joann Adams, North Little Rock, Arkansas.

Steve lived most of his life in Warren, Ohio and for the past 10 years in Dawson. He was a wonderful, kindhearted, intelligent, humorous and loving man who loved music. He had a huge, loving heart and a beautiful soul. “If you knew Steve, you knew Steve”. Family and friends meant more to him than anything in the world. His ability to raise the energy in any room he walked into was second to none. He had a gift for finding humor in every situation and taught us that joy is a choice, often found in the silliest moments.  

Steve is survived by loving companion Sherry Cool, her children and grandchildren; father, John; brother, Michael; sister, Cindy; brother, John (Amy); and nephews and nieces, Scott, Raven, Josh, Dan, Robbie, Kelsey, Ashley, Alexa, Aaron, Akeela and their spouses. He was preceded in death by mother, Bobby Joann; and nephews, Steven and Tony.

A private burial will be held at Standing Rock Cemetery in Kent, Ohio.

Services in care of Bissler & Sons Funeral Home, 628 W. Main St. Kent, OH 44240.
