Adam was awarded the Good Conduct, National Defense, and Korean Service Medals. The one award he proudly talked about receiving was the Presidential Unit Citation. He was honorably discharged at the rank of Sergeant.
After his service in the Marines, Adam devoted his career as an owner/operator of a commercial heating and air conditioning company. After 50 years, he sold the business to his friend, Roger, and retired.
Adam Kiss was a gun enthusiast who loved hunting, fishing, and his gray Jeep Wrangler - which he cherished.
