He was employed part-time at Mo's Body Shop, Frankfort. Wyatt loved and excelled at sports. He participated in wrestling, football, basketball, track, co-rec softball and baseball. He was named to the All Flint Hills and All-League Football Teams in 2005. He also enjoyed spending time with his friends and his girlfriend, Ashley Wanklyn. He is survived by his parents, Tim and Gwen Adams, and a brother, Weston, of the home.

โ Tribute to Wyatt โ
When a young person dies, it makes no sense. Especially when they're a teenager, just beginning to show the type of adult they'll grow up to be. And when there seems to be nothing but good in their future, their death creates an
unimaginable void, that never before could we see. Wyatt, it's amazing how we've always said, you never caused anyone a moment of grief - until now. Your gentle smile and your competitive spirit will hold a special place in our hearts. And we want you to know, you were very much loved and will be very much missed. Go with God and watch over us. Everything is changed without you on our bus.
