Adeline was my friend and neighbor for many years.
I will miss her kindness and all the great moments we shared while she was here, and feel relief knowing she is enjoying the peace of our Father's arms.
Rest in peace, dear Adilene. You will not be forgotten.
Remembering her loving family in prayer.
