You were a great woman, a life long Christian and the best mom, wife, sister, and grandma. Much more than my aunt, you were my second mother. We will remember you always with full hearts. May you rest in peace ❤

Tia Ada was the backbone of the family . Many memories shared together as I worked alongside of her at Isabella's Market. Ada and tío Israel drove to West Virginia to pick me up and reuniting me with my family. As a result, I would not be here today in Springfield. She will always be in my memories and in my heart love always your nephew Samuel Cardona

In loving memory of Aunt Ada Lillian, I am grateful for her sacrifices, faith, compassion, bold persona, energizing humor, and determination to be a bridge to so many in her immediate family and community. While we experience emotions of grief we also rejoice knowing you are reunited in heaven with loved ones.
