Descanse en Paz quien en vida fuera Adele Moncada Johansen,quien ya esta gozando de la Gloria Prometida de Dios Nuestro Senor,ya que ella como Catolica,ensenanza que aprendio de sus caros progenitores,supo cumplir con los Mandamientos de la Ley de Dios,vistio al desnudo,y dio de comer al hambriento.
Ella no esta muerta,sino solo duerme el sueno de los justos.
Fue buena y para que mas.
Que el Senor Todo Poderoso la tenga gozando en su Santo Reino, a quien en vida fuera Adele Johansen.
Con amor de Sus hermanos Rosario y Jairo J. Moncada M

Tía Adela fue un personaje único, el que la conocía se quedaba prendado de su personalidad alegre y su amor a la vida. Sus hijos y nietos fueron el centro de su vida a los que les dedico toda su energía y amor. Yo tuve la oportunidad de mantener una amistad con ella cuando vine a california y me hizo parte de sus momentos, compartimos muchas anécdotas con mis padres, ya que mi papa creció con ella. Igualmente mi suegra fue compañera de colegio desde kínder y cuando se encontraron fue como revivir su infancia otra vez, las bromas colegiales, los momentos de la adolescencia, por fortuna dona Paquita se pudo despedir de Adela en Julio cuando comiendo rosquillas hablaron una vez mas de sus amores de León. Siempre te recordare Adelita, bromeando y como siempre amándonos y a la vez quejándote de la vida, de todos nosotros, pero siempre queriendo vernos y nosotros querer ser parte de ti. Una gran mujer dejo este mundo, vete en paz Adela que amasteis y fuiste amada.
Con amor de Nella Delgadillo de Mayorga

The day we first met, was a blessed day with a special feeling for me, that I never will forget! It was an honor to meet the woman that had solely taken care of three children, and also been there for all of her grandchilren. I could feel the love for her from all of her children and grandchildren that I met. I feel so happy that we got the chance to find all of you distant relatives when we did, so I got to meet Adele while she was still strong. I got a couple of special moments with her at thanksgiving last year and these moment will forever stay in mine and my husband Bo's hearts. Thank you Adele and the whole family for a warm welcome and all the good moments you shared with us during our stay in Walnut Creek last year. We are so sad about the fact that we wont be able tos see you again Adele........ But we are proud to have met you!
