"Michael Adams -- Rochester Published May 20, 2020 at 8:00 AM

Michael Kerr Adams, 79, of Rochester passed away peacefully on May 16, 2020, at Pine Haven Care Center in Pine Island.
Mike was born on Oct. 10, 1940, in Mason City, Iowa to Earling and Lois (Kerr) Adams. He graduated from Minneapolis Central High School and received his degree in English from the University of Minnesota. He married his childhood sweetheart, Gail Gunther, on Nov. 25, 1960, in Minneapolis. Mike and Gail were a beautiful couple who squeezed every possible ounce of joy out of life, and he was an exceptional caregiver from the time of Gail's diagnosis with Alzheimer's until her passing. He was blessed to find love again and married Lucille "Lou" Simmons in 2015.

Mike held several interesting jobs over the years. He attended the United Theological Seminary in the Twin Cities, and was a pastor at the Presbyterian churches in Westbrook and Currie, Minn., for a time, but spent the majority of his career serving as a postal clerk, first in Minneapolis, and later in Rochester. Mike was an active member of the American Postal Workers Union Local 897, and retired from the USPS in 2001. A true renaissance man, his interests and hobbies were varied, including birdwatching, music of all types, science fiction, movies, reading, square dancing, sports (especially watching Minnesota teams with his sons and being in the stands when his grandkids played), and was an avid student of history and theology.

He will be missed by many, including his wife, Lucille of Rochester; four sons, Brian (Nanci) of Zumbrota, Brett (Kim), Brendan (Amy) and Bryce (Cheryl), all of Rochester; and seven amazing grandchildren, Sean, Ashley, Justin, Jenna, Taryn, Bryn and Taylor. He was preceded in death by his parents; wife, Gail; and his sister, Barbara.

The family will have a private inurnment at Oakwood Cemetery in Rochester. If you wish to honor Mike's life with a memorial, suggestions include Mayo Clinic (Palliative Care), the Zumbro Valley Audubon Society, Alzheimer's Association or Calvary Evangelical Free Church.

Ranfranz and Vine Funeral Home is honored to be serving the Adams family. To share a special memory or condolence, please visit www.ranfranzandvinefh.com ."
