William Robert “Bob” Adkins, 80, of St. Albans, went home to be with the Lord, April 18, 2016 peacefully at home with his wife of 55 years and two children by his side.

He was born January 24, 1936 in Spring Hill, the son of William “Crancy” and Velma Almeda Adkins. In addition to his parents he was preceded in death by his brother Leon Adkins.

Bob was a 1953 graduate of St. Albans High School and was a US Army Veteran having served with the 82nd Airborne Division. He was a lifelong active member of Mt Tabor Church of God having served as Sunday School Teacher/Superintendent, deacon and trustee. Bob was the treasurer of the WV Conference of the Churches of God, General Conference for 30 years and served on the Administrative Council of the Allegheny Region of the CGGC for over a decade.

He enjoyed singing and sang many years with the Chapelmen Quartet. His robust bass voice will be missed by many in the congregation at Mt. Tabor. He loved his God, church and family. Bob enjoyed long drives, a good meal and a cold Pepsi.
