Resided in: Gallatin, Tennessee

Rodney Kent Adair, 65, of Gallatin, Tennessee, passed away on Saturday, August 8, at Vanderbilt Health. Mr. Adair was the owner of Adair Outscapes and was formerly employed by Nissan Automotive.

Kent took great pride in his children and grandchildren. Kent was a hardworking man, a devoted father not only to his own children but also a father figure to many others. He was a great friend to countless people and deeply loved his family, always cherishing those closest to him. He attended church regularly and held a strong faith in our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

He will be remembered for his humor, resilience, and the deep love he had for his family. He enjoyed classic cars and working outdoors. A gentle and humble man, Kent was known for his many jokes and his warm, welcoming embrace, both of which will be greatly missed.

He is survived by his children, Jennifer Adair and Cody Adair, who will forever cherish his memory.

He is also survived by his grandchildren, Emily, Gracie, and Michael Lane, and Kenzley Adair. One great-grandchild, Gracelynn Bennett. He also leaves behind numerous beloved cousins, nieces, and nephews, as well as devoted friends Shannon and Dave Cardwell, and Brad Doles.

Kent was preceded in death by his parents, M. Rodney and Rosa Adair and his grandson, Marc Lane Jr.

A Celebration of Life service will be held on Saturday, August 29, at White House First United Methodist Church in White House, Tennessee. The family will receive friends from 10:00 a.m. until 12:00 p.m., with the service beginning at 12:00 p.m. A luncheon hosted by the family will follow in the church fellowship hall.

We hope you will join us as we gather to honor and remember our father.
