Brenda Faye Adams

Brenda Faye Adams, 70, was born on July 9, 1955 in Rock Hill, South Carolina to the late Sam Adams and Demetria Williams Adams. She passed away on Sunday, March 8, 2026 at Atrium Health Carolina Medical Center in Charlotte, North Carolina with her daughters and sister by her side. Her twin sister, Linda Gaye, preceded her in death.

Brenda was educated in the public schools of Rock Hill. She was employed by Celanese Celriver Plant, Rock Hill, SC and retired after 25 years of service. She enjoyed cooking and creating floral designs which later developed into servicing catering and wedding events.

At an early age, Brenda was baptized and became a member of Cross Road Baptist Church, serving as chairperson of the Pastor's Aid Committee, Kitchen Committee and a member of the Hymn Choir.

Brenda leaves a legacy of love for all of us to imitate. She loved the Lord; she loved her church family. She loved her family and friends.

Truth is, Brenda loved people, she was kind to strangers and enjoyed preparing and sharing home-cooked meals for anyone, especially our unhoused community.

Brenda lived with a tremendous amount of courage. She overcame many obstacles in life including her recent diagnosis. She leaned on her faith in God who gave her the strength and resilience to carry on.

In addition to her parents and twin sister, she was preceded in death by her sisters, Margaret E. Hutchison, Julia Mae Adams, Joann Adams and a niece, Ammalette Adams.

She is survived by her beloved daughters, Janika Shante Adams and LaToya Tynisha Adams; "her ride or die bonus daughter" and caregiver, Cathy Sibley; a son, Ohaji Adams Crockett; granddaughter, Keilani Crockett; siblings: Merian J. Adams, Mildred Y. Adams, Larry I Adams (Terrie) and Poinzettia D. Stephens all of Rock Hill; the father of her daughters, Bailey Clawson; many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends whom she loved dearly.

God has wiped all tears from Brenda's eyes and there is no more death, suffering, crying, or pain. These things of the past are gone forever.

Hallelujah!
