It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Mitchell M. Adams of Penfield NY. After a long battle with congestive heart failure Mitchell passed away in the early morning of October 1st surrounded by family and loved ones. The funeral will be a private ceremony with only close family members present.

Mitchell, a devoted husband and father, is survived by his wife Donna; his two children, Barbara (wife Anastasia) and Spencer (wife Mindy); granddaughter Molly; and brother Paul.

Mitchell was a proud, life-long resident of the Rochester area, born in the city in 1938. He served his country as a private in the US Army (stationed in France) in the early 1960s. He will be remembered for his strong Jewish faith, love of nature and a seemingly bottomless well of kindness and curiosity.

We invite you to make a donation in Mitchell’s honor to The American Heart Association (CLICK HERE to donate online) or the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation (CLICK HERE to donate online) in lieu of sending flowers.
