Ann's obituary
Julia Ann Adams, 79, of Henderson passed away on November 7, 2023, after a long and brave battle with cancer. She is now at peace and in the arms of her Savior.
Ann was born in Glendale California to Patrick and Mary Jo Brackney. She grew up in Southern California with her "baby" brother Bill. Their family lived in Long Beach and then moved to Anaheim in 1952. She graduated from Western High school in 1962 and soon after, married Rudolph (Rudy) Baumgart. Together they had two children, their daughter Tamara, and their son Michael. They moved from California to Las
Vegas in 1979. After raising a family and being married 22 years, they went their separate ways but continued to be close friends. In 1989 Ann fell in love with and married her second husband Gerald "G" Adams. They eventually retired and moved to Henderson where they remained married until Gerry’s death in May 2007. Sadly, her only son Micheal passed away from cancer the following month, in June 2007. Ann found strength in her faith in God and in being a ‘people-person’. She was friendly to almost everyone she met, making lifelong friendships with co-workers, neighbors, even her doctors and caretakers. She took great joy in spending what time she could with her family and cherished the moments with her children and her grandchildren. She was proud of each one and delighted in all their accomplishments. Ann was known for her gift of gab and had a green thumb. She played the piano, had a lovely singing voice, and passed on her creativity and love of music to her children. She will be deeply missed but will be remembered and live on in our hearts.
Ann was preceded in death by her parents Patrick and Mary Jo Brackney, her spouse-
Gerald Adams, and her son-Michael "Pastor Mike" Baumgart. She is survived by her brother Bill (Doris) Brackney, her daughter Tamara Baumgart, her grandsons - Paul Brennan, Jeremiah (Bailee) Baumgart Robinson, Nathanael Baumgart Robinson, David Robinson, and Bethany Wetsit.
A celebration of Life will be held in the near future. In lieu of flowers, please donate in Ann’s name to an organization that supports those with cancer and their families, Nathan Adelson Hospice Services, or your favorite charity.
