Adam G. Hipp, age 80, of Orleans, MA, passed away peacefully on February 16, 2023 with his family by his side.

Born in Lebanon County, PA, Adam enjoyed growing up among six siblings. He was proud to have joined the Air Force, serving for twenty- two years and retiring at the rank of Senior Master Sargent. He was stationed in Korea, Vietnam, Guam, and many air bases throughout the United States including Pease Air Force Base. His expertise and love of aircraft served him well.

Following his military career, he became a successful businessman. He owned and ran three full-service Shell Stations in Yarmouth and Dennis alongside his wife, Nancy, before retiring in 2013.

Adam loved adventure:  motorcycles, dirt bikes, race cars, skydiving, and 350+ scuba dives in Australia, New Zealand, the Philippines, and on the east coast of the United States. He was a collector car enthusiast and a member of the Cape Cod Corvette Club. Adam enjoyed fishing on his boat in Cape Cod Bay and driving out on the beach in his 4x4. He loved helping people and volunteered for everything he could. He was a wise man and a straight-talker.

Adam is survived by his beloved wife and best friend, Nancy, his devoted son Daniel and longtime partner Abby, his cherished siblings Ronald, Mike, and Linda and countless family members and dear friends. He was preceded in death by his parents, Mark J. Hipp and Bertha Shuey Glovan, and his siblings Larry, Brenda, and Patricia.

Adam will be dearly missed. Visiting hours will be held from 4-6 P.M. on Thursday, Feb. 23, 2023 at Hallett Funeral Home, 273 Station Ave, South Yarmouth. He will be laid to rest in a private ceremony at the Massachusetts National Cemetery.

Sending my love to you and Aunt Nancy. My deepest condolences for your loss. Uncle Adam was very easy for me to talk to when there were needs with my mom. He was very supportive of all of us. I feel his absence. You are blessed to have had a wonderful father and friend❤️

Nancy & family sorry for your loss. You & Adam were always so kind to my mother Betsy when she moved to East Dennis in the late 1970s. In fact, you were part of the reason that we moved here in 1983. That small town we care about each other here feeling was evident in your business.
