I remember how kind and warm Adele always was to me whenever we were having lunch together at work. She always had a kind word to say and an interesting family story to share with me. She was a joy and an angel to work with and to be around.

In Loving Memory of Tita Adele - The Most Kindest Soul
My beloved Tita Adele - a woman whose kindness, generosity, and unconditional love shaped our family in the most beautiful ways, even from across the miles.
Though she lived in a different country, she never felt far. Her love reached us through her regular phone calls - warm, thoughtful conversations that always made us feel seen and cared for. In her voice, we heard comfort, strength, and the kind of love that never fades. Those calls were her way of reminding us that no matter the distance, we were always close to her heart.
Tita Adele was, without question, the most kindest soul. She had a heart so full of love, it overflowed into everything she did. She was endlessly generous - not just with what she had, but with who she was. Her presence, even from afar, wrapped us in a sense of belonging, of peace, and of home.
She loved sharing stories from the past - moments of joy, of struggle, of triumph - and through them, she passed on the strength of those who came before us. Her stories were more than memories; they were lessons, stitched together with love and wisdom. She reminded us of where we came from and inspired us to carry that legacy forward.
Education was something she held close to her heart. She believed deeply in learning and encouraged us to grow, to read, to ask questions, and to dream bigger. She celebrated every effort, every step forward, always reminding us that knowledge was a gift - and so was believing in ourselves.
But above all, Tita Adele always put family first. No matter what was happening in her own life, she was there for us - fully, unconditionally, without hesitation. Her love held us together across time zones, across generations, and across every hard moment life brought our way. She made sure we always knew: we were loved.
Now, we take comfort in knowing that she is reunited with her beloved husband, Uncle Larry - the love of her life. The two of them, together again, watching over us with the same devotion and tenderness they gave in life.
She leaves behind a legacy of compassion, wisdom, grace, and unwavering love - one that will live on in our hearts, our stories, and the way we love one another.
Rest now, my sweet Tita Adele.
Thank you for your love, your strength, your stories, and your light.
You are home now, with Uncle Larry.
You are missed beyond words, and loved beyond measure.

Adele was a dear friend of my mom Ellie Lucero, and we considered her to be a member of our family.
How precious that she went to Jesus on the day of mom´s funeral, and what a reunion they are having! God is faithful!!!

Hi Mama Adele,
It still feels so unreal that you´re gone. It´s been two months, but not a day passes without me thinking about you. Even though you were far away, you never felt distant. You were always there - helping us with our studies, checking up on us, guiding me even when I was lost.
What I´ll never forget is how, even when I failed you... you still saw the good in me. You didn´t give up on me. You gave me a second chance, and that meant everything. That kind of love is rare, and I´m lucky I got to experience it from you.
Thank you, Mama, for believing in me when I couldn´t believe in myself. For every piece of advice you gave - I carry it with me, and I will continue to carry it for the rest of my life. You helped shape the person I´m becoming, and I´ll keep trying to make you proud, every single day.
I thank God every day that I had you in my life. Even when you were struggling, even when things were hard for you, you still thought about us. You sacrificed and saved whatever little you had just to help, even though we weren´t your responsibility. That kind of love, Mama, is something I will never forget. You were one of the purest souls I´ve ever known.
I miss you so much, Mama Adele. I love you, always. Rest peacefully.
Linda
