I hired Adele to work for us in billing back around 1990 or so. I remember her being so proud of her children and grandchildren. Her wonderful sense of humor, great work ethic and not to be forgotten...her remarkable baking skills! Adele was a joy to work with and just this past Friday while dining with a few from the old office I asked about her...shocked to learn the next day that very evening she had passed. My prayers and condolences to her family...rest in peace Adele...see you again someday.

I was lucky to spend time with Adele at various family get togethers. She was always such a treat to talk to, she had a keen memory and I loved hearing about her adventures and upcoming mystery trips! We shared many evenings sipping a glass of wine on the deck, reminiscing about life! We will miss you, Adele! Dan & Dana Ayala
