Ernest J. Adams, 62, of Shennecossett Parkway, Groton, passed away Friday, October 30, 2020 at L&M Hospital after bravely battling a brief illness. He was the husband of Karen Marsocci-Adams. Ernie was born and raised in Rhode Island, a graduate of Scituate High School, the son of Lloyd Adams and Mary (O’Doherty) Adams, both predeceased.
Ernie worked in the construction industry all of his life: A. Cardi Sand & Gravel, Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nations, and was the proprietor of NorEast Mulch Products in Danielson. Ernie never hesitated, day or night, to help a friend in need. He had a passion for antiques, working with his hands and restoration, particularly horse-drawn carriages and buggies.
Ernie’s departure was too soon, and he will be dearly missed by his family and friends. A memorial service will be held Friday, November 6, 2020 at 10:30am at Sacred Heart Church in Groton, CT.
