In Loving Memory of Adam Waller Supporting Jillienne Gaddy Waller
Fundraising Goal: $10000
Story:
It is with heavy hearts that we share the sudden and unexpected passing of Adam on 5/13/26 at the age of 50.
Adam was a proud veteran, a highly respected Executive Chef, and a man whose life was defined by service, dedication, and love. Whether he was serving his country, leading a kitchen team, mentoring aspiring chefs, or spending time with those he valued most, Adam gave his whole heart to everything he did. Above all, Adam was a devoted husband to his wife, Jillienne, a loving son, a caring brother, a trusted mentor, and a loyal friend. His warmth, generosity, and ability to make others feel welcome left a lasting impression on everyone fortunate enough to know him. He was the kind of person people could count on—a steady presence who offered guidance, encouragement, and support without hesitation.
Adam will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered for his kindness, strength, loyalty, humor, and the unconditional love he showed to those around him. His loss leaves an immeasurable void in the lives of his family, friends, colleagues, and all who were touched by his remarkable spirit.
As Jillienne navigates the unimaginable grief of losing her husband, we are asking for support to help ease the financial burdens that accompany such an unexpected loss. Funds raised will help with funeral and memorial expenses, household obligations, and other immediate needs during this difficult time.
Our goal is to raise $10,000 to provide Jillienne with some measure of stability and support as she focuses on healing and honoring Adam's memory.
Every donation, no matter the size, is deeply appreciated. If you are unable to contribute financially, please consider sharing this fundraiser and keeping Jillienne and the Waller/Vinson family in your thoughts and prayers.
Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support during this incredibly difficult time.
In loving memory of Adam Waller (1976–2026)
A veteran, loving husband, Executive Chef, son, brother, mentor, and friend whose legacy of kindness and service will never be forgotten. ❤️
