Ham, Adrienne (Smith) of Quincy, passed peacefully surrounded by her family on July 20, 2022.

Adrienne’s life revolved around her family and her home in Quincy.  She treated her home as a sanctuary and it provided her family many years of comfort and joy. She was a caring, kind, compassionate and independent woman who enjoyed helping anyone in need. Adrienne was specially loving and did everything she could to help and care for her three sons and her grandchildren. She was always willing, ready and present to help her neighbors and friends who were elderly and needed help. Never had an unkind word for anybody and according to her grandchildren she was an awesome nana. Adrienne also loved to shop for clothing and jewelry and took great pride in her appearance. She never met a stranger and always had an uplifting word for anybody who crossed her path in her morning walks. She made an art form of doing laundry and climbing the steep stairs to do it!

Beloved wife of the late Kenneth Ham.  Loving mother of the late David Ham and his widow Gloria Ham of South Carolina, Gary Ham and his wife Viviana of Andover, Wayne Ham and his wife Michelle “Muffin” of Weymouth.  Sister of the late Barbara Sterling. Cherished “Nana” to David Ham, Gloria Ham and Alejandra Ham; Ryan Manning; Christopher Ham, Nicholas Ham and Taylor Leonard.  Great “Nana” to Keira, Emilia, Austin and Madison.
