My sincere love and prayers for all the family. What Joy in the knowledge and promises in God’s perfect plan that reunites families eternally! What a blessing Adeltha is in the Spirit World where she and Bertram are busily working together.

Adeltha has always been an inspiration to us with all of her accomplishments, work, teachings, and love for others. Whenever we have been able to be together she was very gracious. I am grateful for all she has done for Kamela and our shared grand children. Look forward to seeing her and Bertram in the future.

Uncle Bertram received the best Christmas present ever! This incredible couple will never be apart again. Aunt Adeltha is my personal hero. She is a true disciple of Jesus Christ and a loving example to all. Adeltha is practical, hard working, unspoiled and generous. Her obituary and funeral are beautiful and so is her amazing family. They are in our hearts and our prayers. We love you!

I am so sorry to hear of Adeltha's passing. She was a true friend and a blessing to this community. Prayers and condolences for the family.

I am so sorry to hear of Adeltha's passing. She was such an inspiration to me and my family. Her kindness and compassion were untouchable. She was a wonderful friend and raised a very caring family. She will be missed by many. Her gardens had the best veggies you could ever want. May she and Bertram enjoy the gardens of Heaven. God's blessings for the family!

Adeltha was a beautiful example to me as a teenager. She was a mentor, a cheerleader, a teacher and so much more. I loved her sense of humor. I always knew she was devoted to the gospel of Jesus Christ and to her family. I have so many fond memories that include her. Heaven has gained an angel of the highest caliber.
