I know you are happy where you are and I am selfish, I am just lost with out you. I know one day I will get to hug you again. Your loving Daughter.

James, we are so very sorry for your loss. It was a pleasure to have been acquainted with Ada. She had a smile and kind word for everyone. I am so glad that the two of you were able to enjoy your retirement time together in the lake area. I know both of you treasured those moments.

Aunt Ada was always the one we wanted mom to leave us with as our babysitter. She was the caretaker ever. I watched her care for her mother, and she was always there when I needed a shoulder to cry on. Growing up in this family has been a huge blessing to me. James, Liz, Mitch, Karen and Jeff....I will always love you guys. My prayers are with you now and always. And Ada, I will see her again someday and have a wonderful hug and laugh with her Love Shirley

Life in Zavalla was better because of Ada. She was faithful, joyful and lots of fun to be around. Like Jesus, there is always a crowd of people spending time enjoying life just being near her. Im sure the same is true in heaven. She is one you point to and say heaven is going to be a blast because people like Ada are there. Im certainly looking forward to that.

I fell in love with Ada the second I saw her. She was an image of joy and happiness that drew me to her. Then I heard her voice and her laughter. They couldnt be matched. I was done. I felt like I knew her and loved her before I even hugged her hello. I think thats how everyone felt about her. And how we will always feel about her. Keep Sittin on it sister. I love you.
