Julia Ann Petti Wedding Adams, left this Earth July, 16, 2022 at 2PM to be
with her Lord and savior Jesus and waiting love ones. Born February 23,
1935 to Don Petti and Jane Webster Petti and adopted at birth by Charles
Victor and Ruby Law Wedding and raised in Texarkana, Texas. Graduated
from Texarkana Highschool in 1954. She married to Maurice Day Adams,
Sr. on August 8, 1953. They lived in Texas before moving to New Orleans
then to Jackson in 1957. They have four children, Vicki Dione Zachary
(Darryl), Maurice Day Adams, Jr., Roy Daryl Adams (Tanya), Kimmi Dar-Sue
Sellers (Jonathan). Sixteen grandchildren, Jonathan Zachary, Jessica Zachary,

Christine Adams.
She began her political career in 1986. She was on the Jackson Town Council,
Member of the Private Industry Council (PIC) and Justice of the Peace for
East Feliciana Parish for 22 years.
Julia was a faithful Christian Woman. She was a long time member of First
Baptist Church, Jackson, Louisiana. I don’t think there is a church in this area
that she didn’t attend. She loved visiting with the other congregations hearing
the word of the Lord and singing the gospel. She was an avid football fan.
