Ada Bryant Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Cherubini-McInerney Funeral Home on Mar. 20, 2026.
Ada Bryant was a loving grandmother, mother, sister, cousin, and aunt to many. She was the proud mother of her son, Eric Bryant. She was a proud grandmother to 16 beautiful grandchildren who she loved deeply.

As the third oldest among her siblings, Ada carried strength, wisdom, and love throughout her entire life. She leaves behind her beloved son, her grandchildren, four siblings, and countless others whose lives she touched, cared for, and nurtured as her own.

Ada had a heart of gold and a beautiful soul. She was stern, straightforward, and never afraid to speak her truth-but that was part of what made her so special. Most of the things she said were funny, but true, and her humor could light up any room. She kept a good spirit even when times were rough, showing strength and grace through it all.

A hardworking and dedicated woman, Ada earned her bachelor's degree in nursing and devoted her career to caring for others. She worked with veterans and gave over 20 years of service in a nursing home, always putting others before herself. Her compassion, strength, and commitment to helping people will never be forgotten.

Ada was also a cancer survivor-a true testament to the strength she carried within her. She was one of the strongest women we have ever known, and her legacy of love, resilience, and care will live on through all of us.

We will miss her deeply, more than words can express. But we find comfort in knowing she is no longer in pain or suffering.

Fly high, Ma. Your love will live in our hearts forever-and never forgotten.
