Mrs. Deloris Adams was born to Mrs. Leola Davis-Clark and Mr. Charlie Reed in Yazoo City, MS. on August 5, 1943.

She would eventually relocate to Atlanta, GA where she would reside until her death.
Mrs. Adams loved to cook and was an avid reader. She was a counselor to many and would always have a listening ear and encouraging words to offer. She was a thoughtful and giving mother, friend and neighbor.

Until we meet again

Condolences & Tributes
Add A CondolenceI'm very sorry for your loss. May the God of tender mercies (Psalm 83:18) comfort and strengthen you for the days ahead, 2 Corinthians 1:3,4
I want to offer my condolences to the Family and friends. Hebrews 4:15 says, “ For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tested in all respects as we have, but without sin.” Yes, Jesus endured sufferings when on earth, including the pain of losing a love one (John 11: 33, 35, 38). It has been promised from our God of comfort that sickness, pain, and death will be removed ((Isaiah 33:24; 1 Corinthians 15:26; Revelation 21:4,5). An additional promise given is that all our loved ones in the memorial tombs will awaken from asleep in death to enjoy life as our loving Creator purposed (Isaiah 26:19; Psalms 145:16). Allow these words to keep comforting all of you.
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
