CARSON, Adrienne Maeve O’Dowd, 57, of Tampa, passed away March 21, 2018 surrounded by family.
Adrienne was born on April 11, 1960 in Bogota, Colombia, to the late John and Edith (Braun) O’Dowd. Adrienne was raised in Colombia, Venezuela and Miami, Fla. Adrienne was a loving daughter, sister, and wife. She was an avid golfer and loved to spend time attending to her garden and with her dog Spike. She will always be remembered for her witty sense of humor, her ready smile and gift of connecting with people and never knowing a stranger. Simply, Adrienne is irreplaceable. She is fondly remembered by dear friends, family and co-workers as always being easy to relate to as well as holding the greater good of others close to her heart. Adrienne is survived by her husband, Angelo; sisters, Deirdre (John) Flowers, Cate (Craig) Wells and brother William P. O’Dowd. Per her wishes, cremation has taken place. Family and friends will celebrate her life at a later date on her favorite beach in Anna Maria Island where Adrienne and Angelo were married. Adrienne’s cremains will be spread at sunrise as well as sunset over the seas, as the morning sun rises and once again recedes.
