Terry Allen Adams, 70, of Bogue, Kansas, died July 5, 2021, in Kearney, Nebraska. He was born August 4, 1950, in Marysville, California to Lawrence and JoAnn (Frazier) Adams. With family ties to Bogue and Hill City, the family made their way back to Graham County. Terry attended Hill City Grade School and graduated from Hill City High School in 1968. Following graduation, Terry attended the Northwest Area Vocational/Technical School.

Terry lived in Florida for many years. It was also his home base as he traveled the world setting up and managing casinos. Family ties were very important to Terry. He dearly loved his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.

When Terry’s father died in 2017, he returned to Bogue and established his home there. Terry loved hanging out with his cousins, hunting, or working cattle, and he was always up for a round or two of golf. Drinking coffee with his “church buddies” Monday through Saturday was a standard gathering. However, in Terry’s words, “Never on Sunday.” There were many days when he would just jump on his Harley and enjoy the changing scenes of Kansas.

In 2018 Terry began working in the maintenance department at Dawson Place Nursing Home. Many of the residents so enjoyed seeing him and visiting with him. The longer he worked there, the more he wanted to work directly with the residents. Therefore, he enrolled in the CNA program and just recently earned his CNA license. Terry was preceded in death by his parents and stillborn siblings. Leaving to mourn his passing are his immediate family, extended family, and many friends.
