Adam James Nixson
November 22, 1986 — December 28, 2015
Adam James Nixson, 29 of Pleasant Hill, Missouri, formerly of Johnston, Iowa, was born, October 22, 1986, in Des Moines, Iowa, the son of James W. and Tami L. (Love) Nixson. He departed this life, Monday, December 28, 2015.
Adam was a 2005, Johnston Senior High graduate. On August 6, 2011, he was united in marriage to Lauren M. Davis in Liberty, Missouri.
He was employed as a Sheet Metal Apprentice working for the P1 Group, Inc., and was a proud member of the Sheet Metal Workers, Local Union No. 2, Kansas City, Missouri. He was an avid outdoorsman with a passion for duck hunting with his dog, Jack. He was a loyal fan to the KC Royals and Chiefs.
The passion he held for life was infectious, much like his laugh. The love and respect he showed to those around him had no limits. He was a sweet and caring man who loved his family and friends, but was most proud of his two sons. He gave his whole heart into being a father and husband.
Adam was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Jim and Janice Nixson, and maternal grandfather Jim Love.
