Weymouth, MA. He lived in Florida and Maine before settling back on the South Shore with Renee in Kingston. John was loved by all who knew him, the life of the party, always bringing laughter and a smile wherever he went. He was a lover of the outdoors, including snowmobiling, boating or any activities near the water or a marina. He especially enjoyed spending time with family and friends, cooking, hanging out and enjoying a good meal together. He was happiest just being by Renee’s side and that’s where you could find him most days. John was the proud co-owner of a local freight brokerage company and cherished his work family. He is survived by the love of his life and fiancée, Renee Pellerin Boyd, his amazing step children Abby and Tanner, whom he was so proud of. He is also survived by his parents, John (Jack) and Roberta Adams of Bluffton, SC; his sister, Kim Harrington and her husband Steve of Clayton, NC; and his nephews Jonathan and his wife Erica, Joshua, Teddy and Stephen all from Clayton, NC.
