Robert (Bob) Kenneth Adams, 71, a devoted father, husband, grandfather, uncle, coach, and friend, passed away on May 27th, 2026 in Indianapolis, Indiana.Born on January 17th, 1955, in Elkhart Indiana, Bob was raised by his parents, Irene and Bob Adams. After graduating from school, Bob became an art teacher. After losing much of his eyesight, Bob retired as an educator, but then in 1999 he became an assistant boys baseball coach at Lebanon High School, where he was able to continue shaping the hearts and minds of young men for the next 25 years. On September 2nd, 1978, Bob married his soulmate and love of his life, Debra Dawn Bragg. Bob and Debbie Adams then spent the next 48 years together as an inseparable team that defined what it truly means to be happily married. Their love and commitment to one another was nothing short of inspirational and permeates throughout the beautiful family they built together.As a father, Bob was a man of few words whose actions said everything. He understood that actions speak louder than words, and his actions always made it clear to everyone just how much he loved his family. He taught his children lessons to live by… work hard and laugh hard…show patience to the ones you love and empathy to the ones you don’t… have courage and be kind.Bob loved watching sports with his family, particularly Notre Dame Football, IU Basketball, and Chicago Cubs Baseball. He enjoyed making all the food for the family gatherings but humbly letting Debbie have the credit for the delicious meals. Bob became quite the mixologist, inventing new drinks and cocktails for his nieces and nephews to try at every family function. His frozen drinks were always a hit, leaving everyone wondering what he’ll come up with for next time. Bob also took a lot of pride in his and Debbie’s home. He loved spending time working in his yard, making it beautiful and welcoming to everyone. If it was nice outside, you’d either find Bob and Debbie working hard out in their front yard, or you’d find them relaxing and enjoying each other along with their family in the back yard.Bob is survived by his loving and devoted wife Debbie Adams; his children Kyle Biesecker, Laura Biesecker, Ashley Christian, and Daniel Christian; his grandchildren Addie Biescker, Harper Biesecker, and Lily Christian, and his daughter by heart Rorie Wood.Services will be held this Friday, June 5th 2026, at Simplicity Funeral Home, 125 W.
