Billy was born on December 9th,1955 to Joseph William Adamowicz II and Lucille (Beauregard) of Griswold, CT. He grew up and attended school in Griswold. When he started his family, he moved to Lisbon where he resided for the rest of his life. Growing up and residing in the Griswold/Lisbon area, Billy could rarely go anywhere without knowing someone. They would end up talking about the great times they shared.

Billy was a caring man. He cared deeply for his family and friends, lending a hand whenever called for help, night or day, no questions asked. He loved spending time with his adult kids, having places to travel, and now being retired.

He was also a part of the local Boy Scout Troop 73, where he assisted and helped teach the scouts how to cook while out in the environment. Through these avenues of life Billy created some great friendships, lasting decades long. Billy loved a good time, with good food, friends and lots of naps! He will be missed dearly!

Billy worked almost 40 years at Stop&Shop before retiring in 2021. He became a well-known member of the company throughout many of the local stores. His loyal customers appreciated his banter, caring nature and customer service. He really was the best!

I didn't get to know BJ that well until I moved back to CT. Connie and I have been best friends since the Clark Lane days. BJ was always in a good mood, always around for advice, or to come over and fix something. He even helped out with our cat shelter, Compassion For Cats Of New London County. If we needed help with something big if asked, he'd help. I was happy to assist BJ & Connie with getting 2 cats from the shelter, and they gave BJ so much love and fun! He's an original "Good Guy," and there's not many left!

Mr. Adamowicz was one of my beloved Boy Scout leaders for many years as a kid and I am forever grateful for what I learned from him. He was boisterous and deeply kind, but firm in his guidance. I sincerely hope he understood the impact he had on every kid he saw through scouting. lThis summer, I will prepare a garbage can turkey in his honor. Rest Easy Mr. A.

So sorry for your loss. BJ worked with my husband at Stop & Shop for many years. They shared a love of NASCAR racing and attended a number of races together. They also shared a love of good food and good friends. He will be missed.

I have no words to even express my thoughts and sadness. My deepest sympathy to you all. Too many memories and happy stories. BJ is one in a million. He introduced my kids and me to garbage can turkey, which became one of our favorites when BJ came to town. Rest well BJ.
