Ada loved her family and always welcomed anyone into her home. Her greatest joy was the untold number of people that gathered around her table for just coffee, cake and conversation or the huge holiday feast she prepared for so many years. She had a wonderful sense of humor and never met a stranger. Her unconditional love for her family and friends will be forever missed.
