Mechanicville, NY - Thomas Michael Adamson of Mechanicville, NY, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, April 17, 2019 at the age of 72 years.

Tom will be lovingly remembered by his children Nona Adamson, Brandii (Mathew) Baker, La Shay Adamson (Philippe), Amber Adamson (David), Honesty Adamson (Luke),  and Samuel Adamson, and their mother, Maria Adamson as well as his grandchildren, Cailee, Maddie, Alex, Nate and Daphne, who never failed to put a smile on his face. He is survived by his brothers-in-law, Larry Chuba and Tom Burns, and his brother Joseph Adamson, as well as his sisters, Cynthia Darrow (Robert) and Mary Adamson (Richard), in addition to many beloved nieces and nephews. Tom was predeceased by his sisters, Charan Adamson and Bille Marie Burns, and his parents, William and Pauline Adamson.

Thomas enjoyed a full life with many family gatherings that were marked by stories of his days as a firefighter in Texas, his time in Korea as an Air Force serviceman, and his later travels throughout the southern states of the U.S. He found happiness in the tranquil nature of the banks of the Hudson River and could be found rebuilding cars, hosting an outdoor cookout, or just spending time with loved ones.
