To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. II Corinthians 5:8
Hoot Adams left to be with his Lord Jesus on Sunday Sept. 17, 2017. He will be greatly missed.
In lieu of services, there will be a casual remembrance at Odessa Tabernacle Church on Wednesday, Sept. 20, 2017, from 1-3 p.m. Come and go as you like.
The family feels the best way to honor Hoot is by an unexpected act of kindness or generosity for someone in need.
Hoot was employed by Occidental Petroleum as a Senior Well Maintenance Technical Adviser and enjoyed the challenges of the oilfield, while helping others achieve their goals.
He enjoyed movies, fishing, and being outdoors.
He was married to the love of his life Cindy Adams for 43 years, and blessed with three wonderful children, daughters, Jennifer Rathbun and husband, Aaron, and Jaclyn Ross and husband; Michael; and son, Jefferey Adams. He cherished the moments spent with his five grandchildren, Linsey Ross, Lauren Ross, Madalyn Ross, Hoot Rathbun, & Alyssa Rathbun. He is also survived by his sweet sister, Treon Johnson, husband, Glenn.
Services are entrusted to Hubbard-Kelly Funeral Home, in Odessa. 432-332-0991
