Dr. Robert L. Adams, 88, of Bloomfield CT, was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and friend to many throughout his life. He passed away peacefully on March 1st, 2023. Born in Hartford, Dr. Adams was a long-time resident of West Hartford and attended Hall High School. In 1959, he graduated from Temple University School of Liberal Arts and the Temple University School of Dentistry. After serving as a Captain in the United States Airforce, Dr. Adams opened up his dental practice in Newington where he faithfully served his beloved patients for over 40 years. Bob, as he was known by to his friends, was the son of the late Herman and Sadie Adams. Bob was predeceased by his wife of 54 years Elinor and is survived by his two children; daughter Phyllis Madden and her husband Benjamin of Rye Brook, NY, and Howard Adams and his wife Patricia of Sandy Hook, CT, as well as five grandchildren Dylan Madden, Mackenzie Madden, Shea Madden, Sarah Adams, and Jaime Adams. A kind and beautiful soul, Bob loved spending time with his grandchildren and had enjoyed many hobbies post-retirement including playing golf and fishing with friends, reading, and traveling. Over the past 15 years, Bob enjoyed the company of Naomi Fox. Together, they vacationed, dined at steak houses, spent time with friends, and shared many family get togethers. With Naomi’s help, Bob was an impeccable dresser; a button-down collared shirt with a sweater and dress pants was his signature. We will miss him very dearly, but we are so grateful for the time we were able to spend with him. A private funeral service will be held. The family will receive relatives and friends Friday, March 3rd 12:00PM to 2:30PM at Duncaster (40 Loeffler Rd, Bloomfield, CT). In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation in his memory to the Connecticut Foundation for Dental Outreach, 835 West Queen Street, Southington, CT 06489 (www.cfdo.org/support).
