Adam Daniel

Companion

With profound sadness, we share the passing of our beloved Adam Daniel Companion on Monday, November 9, 2026.

Adam was born on September 1, 1995, at 2:26 a.m. to Melissa Delisle and Dan Companion. He was welcomed by his proud big sister, Amanda, and later became a devoted big brother to Anna. From his very first moments, Adam was a sweet, affectionate child whose warm dimples brought endless comfort and joy to family and friends.

Adam spent his school years across South Burlington, VT, Rockledge, FL, and Forsyth County, GA. He went on to earn associate degrees in Accounting and Office Administration from Asheville-Buncombe Technical College. He also honorably served five years in the United States Navy as a Machinist’s Mate.

On October 31, 2015, while stationed at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam in Oahu, HI, Adam married Elizabeth McPherson in a quiet, intimate ceremony at Foster Botanical Garden in Honolulu. Liz was truly his “person”—an unconditional partner who deeply understood and cherished his artistic soul.

Throughout his career, Adam worked in business administration, retail sales, and boat maintenance. Beyond work, he found expression and peace in playing guitar, writing poetry and prose, and spending time outdoors hiking, walking, and swimming.

Navigating mental health struggles that began during his teenage years, Adam showed quiet resilience. Finding large crowds and traditional school settings overwhelming, he persevered to become the first student at his high school to complete his diploma entirely through online learning.

He is survived by his loving wife, Liz (Elizabeth Companion); parents Melissa Delisle and Dan Companion; sisters Amanda (Richard) Catalfano and Anna Companion; nephews Parker and Oliver Catalfano; in-laws Steve and Lisa McPherson; grandfather Roger Companion, grandmother Jean Lacourse; grandmother-in-law Jean McPherson; uncles Tim Delisle (Cathi Comar), Mark Delisle (Penny St. Pierre), Joe Faryniarz (Susan), Marc Companion (Tina), and Jim Companion; aunts Ann (Delisle) Faryniarz, Susan Enos, and Michelle Companion; great-aunt Carolyn (Delisle) Demore; aunt-in-law Karen Gallagher and cousins Ethan, Hunter, and Dakota Delisle, Joseph and Lee (Tasneem) Faryniarz, Grace Delisle, John (Evon) Delisle, and Chantal (Kyle) Hartsook. He also leaves behind the Campbell family (Bob, Wanda, Patrick, and Ryan), who were especially close in his early years and remained cherished friends throughout his life.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents Jim (Shirley) Delisle and Pauline (Martin) Companion; aunt Tia Romania; grandparents-in-law Carl McPherson,Vicky Schroeder and Gerry Schroeder. 

A Celebration of Life will take place on Tuesday, November 17, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. at Pilgrimage United Church of Christ, 3755 Sandy Plains Rd, Marietta, GA 30066.
