Nathan Taylor Adams

Nathan Taylor Adams, 23, of Newport, Oregon, passed away March 5, 2017, after fighting a courageous battle against mental illness. He was born in Clackamas, Oregon, to parents Eric C Adams and Christine M Adams, of Firth, Idaho.

He proudly graduated from Blackfoot High School in 2011.

Nate's interests lied in extreme sports. He loved skateboarding as a child as well as snowboarding, and his greatest passion of all… surfing his mighty Pacific Ocean. He was fearless and found his serenity in the crashing waves.

He was actively involved in the Newport AA Community, where he chaired meetings and inspired many.

Nate had a way of loving people unconditionally and completely. He was witty, creative, daring and brave. He deeply loved his brother, Levi, and sister, Olivia.

He is survived by his parents, Eric And Christine Adams; his brother, Levi Adams, and his sister, Olivia Adams, of Firth, Idaho; his grandmother, Virginia Corbell, of Firth, Idaho; his grandparents, Chet and Phyllis Adams, of Firth, Idaho; his aunt, Martha, and uncle, Pablo Garcia, of Ensenada, Mexico; aunt, Lisa Adams, of Boise; and cousins, Benjamin Garcia (Jeanelle), Jacob Garcia, Jared Loughmiller (Katie) and Craig Loughmiller.

He was preceded in death by his much loved uncle, Scott Adams, of Firth, Idaho.

A memorial service will be held at Crosspoint Community Church, 1900 Grandview Drive, in Idaho Falls, Idaho, on Wednesday, March 15. Visitation will begin at 1 p.m. with the service following at 2 p.m.

Nate did not give up; he simply moved on. In lieu of flowers, please seek to gain knowledge and compassion for those afflicted with mental illness.
