We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Adolph Mason, fondly known as "Ace" or "Brudda," who left us on April 24, 2024. Born on January 28, 1973, in Springfield, Massachusetts, Adolph's life was a testament to his loving nature, his funny sense of humor, his supportive character, and his compassionate spirit. These qualities, among others, made him a beacon of light to those around him, illuminating the path for others with his unwavering love and kindness.
Adolph was an irrigation specialist by profession, a job that reflected his nurturing and supportive nature. He lived in Athol, Massachusetts, but his influence reached far beyond his hometown. He was a man who loved the great outdoors and found joy in hunting, yet what mattered most to him was his family. His supportive and loving spirit was evident in his marriage and as a father to his eight children. When his wife shared with him that her life revolved around the church, Adolph embraced it wholeheartedly. He supported her religious endeavors and even took up religious classes, growing in faith alongside his wife. "We love you, Daddy," are words that echo in the hearts of his children, a testament to his legacy of love.
Adolph's life verse was from the book of Proverbs 17:17, "A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity." He lived this verse, demonstrating love at all times and standing by his loved ones in times of adversity. Adolph is survived by his wife, Kerry Ann Mason; their eight children, Lacey-Mae, Olivia, Elliott, Faith, Stella, Christian, Calvin, and Mariah; his sister, April Dupuis and brother-in-law, James Dupuis; his mother-in-law, Carol and father-in-law, Charles; his nephews, Alex Walsh, Eric Walsh, Chris Walsh, Cody Munroe, and Chase Dupuis; his niece, Noelle Munroe; and his sister-in-law, Heather Munroe and her husband, Kristofer Munroe.
He is preceded in death by his parents, Eric and Ruth Mason, and his brother, Horace Smith.
