Kathleen Kay Adams

Kathleen Kay Adams, a cherished soul known for her unwavering kindness and love for animals, passed away peacefully on May 29, 2024, at her home in Middleville, Michigan. Born on June 29, 1951, in Paw Paw, Michigan, she was the beloved daughter of Ron and Lorraine (Beadle) McKibbin, who preceded her in death.

Kathleen was a graduate of Wayland High School. On September 30, 1988, she married Jeff Adams, and they enjoyed 35 years together.

Professionally, Kathleen was the Practice Manager at Adams Veterinary Service, where her organizational skills and compassionate nature were instrumental in the success of the practice.

Kathleen's love for animals was not just a part of her personal life but also a significant aspect of her professional identity. She found joy in the company of Corgis, cats, goats, and horses.

She is survived by her devoted husband, Jeff Adams; her loving children, Corey (Val) Haller and Cristen (Garry) McWhinney and grandchildren Claire Haller, Hailey Castor, Brekin McWhinney, and Colton McWhinney; her sister, Cheryl Round; and many adoring nieces and nephews.

A Memorial Service will be held at a later date.  In memory of Kathleen, contributions can be made to the Community Spay Neuter Initiative Partnership (CSNIP) https://csnip.org/financial-support, an organization that was close to her heart. Her passion for animal welfare and her belief in the power of community action will continue to inspire and make a difference in the world. Arrangements by Girrbach Funeral Home.
