Christopher Stanley (Stan) Adams

Christopher Stanley (Stan) Adams, age 43, of Benton, passed away April 21, 2019. Easter morning Stan hit his Final Grand Slam when he slid into home. GOD Almighty swooped him up and said, "STAN my SON, you are SAFE!" He was born November 13, 1975 in Benton, Arkansas. Stan lived most of his life in Sardis and Benton. After graduating from Bryant High School, he also attended North Arkansas Junior College for two years and then transferred to Henderson State University so he could finish playing the SPORT he LOVED so much, BASEBALL! Stan has helped coach Babe Ruth baseball in Benton with Pop Adams and inspired young boys to always give it their all. Stan is survived by his mother, Rebecca Adams; father, Danny Adams (Lisa); two grandfathers, Tommy Childs and Tommie Adams; sister, Kimberly Billingsley (Carlton); brother, Timothy Adams (Michelle); two step-sisters, Tiffany Tidwell and Jacquelyn Mosely; six nephews and four nieces. He was preceded in death by Granny Childs and Granny Adams. Stan made friends easily and never once did he meet a stranger. He spent the last years of his life helping as a caregiver to his Granny and Pop Childs. His disability gave him the ability to help be there for them. He loved working in the yard making sure everything was to PERFECTION! Stan will truly be MISSED but never FORGOTTEN! We all LOVE YOU STAN! Pallbearers will be Chris Hawkins, Heath Garrison, Joey Gregory, Scott Allison and Bryan Rusher.
