Obituaries

Billy Conway Adams, age 74 of Walton, KY passed away on November 7, 2025 with his wife, son, daughter, and dog Rambo by his side.

Bill was a kind and gentle soul, deeply loved by all who knew him. He was content with life’s simple pleasures and never longed for material things.

Bill retired as the longest-serving employee of Rotek, where he built friendships that lasted well beyond his retirement. Outside of work, he enjoyed camping and fishing at Lake Cumberland with his close-knit neighbor family. After retiring, he could most often be found outdoors with Rambo—resting on the front porch or tinkering in the backyard. He also cherished vacationing with his daughter’s family and especially loved going on cruises with Alaska being his favorite! Perhaps most of all, Bill found joy in following in his father’s footsteps fixing lawnmowers and giving new life to things others threw away.

He was preceded in death by his beloved parents, Lorraine and Billie Adams. Bill is survived by his wife of 52 years Darnay; his sister Barbara; his children Jordon and Dannette; and his grandchildren, Colin, Avery, Timothy, and Stephen.

Bill’s quiet strength, humor, and generous heart will be missed deeply but remembered always.

Burial will be private for the family.
