Worth, TX, Bobby Adams (Janet) of Karnes City, TX, Kenneth Adams of Whigham, Ga., Jeanenne Davis of Kosciusko, TX, and John Adams of Bainbridge, Ga.; her grandchildren, Sarah, Erin, Dean, Sam, Kelsey, Amber, Brian, Katie, Justin, Elizabeth, and Keller; her great-grandchildren, Avery & Emily; her siblings, Herbert Keller, Gilbert Keller, Patricia Richter, Chester Keller, Gerald Keller, and Edgar Keller; and a large extended family.
