Josephine ‘Jo’ Brewington Adams, served the Lord

October 23, 2021

Josephine “Jo” Brewington Adams, 80, passed away in the care of her family and Compassionate Care Hospice Monday, Oct. 18, 2021.

Jo was born in Millsboro to the late George Edwin Brewington Sr. and Agnes Marie Clouser Brewington. In addition to her parents, she is preceded in death by her husband Fred Adams; as well as siblings Anna Lee Lewis, Kenneth Brewington, Paul Brewington, Eugene Brewington, Helen Banks and George Brewington Jr.; a daughter-in-law, Rita Hudson; a granddaughter, Kasey Hudson; and one great-great-granddaughter, Avery Grace Hudson.

She was a member of High Tide Baptist Church and a Core Group Leader at CBS (Community Bible Study Sussex County) held at Grace United Methodist Church and she received her bachelor’s degree in ministry in 2007.  She owned and operated Hairs to You Salon in Selbyville before her retirement.  She regularly attended the yearly Denton Wesleyan Camp, and looked forward to spending time with family and friends each year.

Jo was the most loving, selfless person, and embraced everyone unconditionally. Her goal in life was to serve the Lord, and spread his love and goodness to everyone she knew. She loved completely, and the loss of her love and affection will leave a void in all who were fortunate to call her a friend or family. We miss her already. 

Jo is survived by four children, Victor Hudson of Bridgeville, Dana Plummer (Jeff) of Rehoboth Beach, John Hudson (Dawn) of Millsboro, Martin Hudson (Wendy) of Salisbury, Md.; and a stepdaughter, Sharon Adams of Dagsboro.  She also has two siblings, Marie DeCelles of Frankford and June Joseph of Millsboro.  Jo was also blessed with nine grandchildren Tristen, Jeffrey, Whitney, Jessica, Joshua, Katie, Kelsea, Taylor and Braydon; along with 16 great-grandchildren Rowan, Thornton, Jacob, Josie, Kaylee, Joshua (J.C), Gavin, Kendall, Jed, Waylon, Chase, Kinsley, Clayton, Peyton, Tirzah, and Liam; and one great-great-grandson Braxton. She also has three stepgrandchildren surviving, Rebecca, Kenzie and Paynter. Jo is also survived by nieces, nephews, extended family and friends.

A funeral will be held at noon, Saturday, Oct. 30, at Watson Funeral Home, 211 S. Washington St., Millsboro, where friends may call from 10 a.m. to noon for viewing and visitation.  Pastor Andy Ehlers of High Tide Baptist Church will officiate. Interment will follow at the Dagsboro Redmen’s Memorial Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests contributions to High Tide Baptist Church Building Fund, P.O. Box 127, Dagsboro, DE  19939.
