Publish in a newspaper
She was born in Laurel, Nebraska on August 7, 1934 to Matilda Meta Ann Wright and Gustav August Paulsen. Matilda Meta Ann Wright (preceded) rode the orphan train to Nebraska in 1902. Adele lived an active life with her family and siblings celebrating community festivals and attending high school football and basketball games. She was confirmed in the United Lutheran Church in Laurel in 1948.
In 1952, she graduated Laurel High School and then attended Wayne State Teachers College where she earned her A.A. in Elementary Education. Her teaching career started in a one-room schoolhouse near Laurel, Nebraska. Over the next 34 years, she taught in Planview, Nebraska, Hartington, Nebraska, Centerville, South Dakota and Burnsville, Minnesota. She retired in 1996 after spending 25 years with the Child Development & Learning Center. She loved working with young children and valued the lifelong friendships she formed with her colleagues.
She married her husband, Warren Richard Eidsness, of 67 years in Hartington, Nebraska in 1957. They were blessed with two children Jon and Susan (Christopher) Remer. She was an outgoing friend to all and made her kindness felt by everyone she met. For 22 years, she and her husband wintered in Mesa, Arizona. She loved spending time with her family, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
She is preceded by her parents, three brothers and three sisters. She is survived by her husband, son, daughter, son-in-law, five grandchildren (Kayla, Kevin, Jonathan, Evelyn and Magdelena), and two great grand-children (Drayton and Dakotah).
Visitation will be held Saturday, January 25, 10:00 am at Prince of Peace Lutheran Church in Burnsville, Minnesota. Celebration of life will follow at 11:00 am. Refreshments will follow the service.

I worked with Adele at CDLC. She was a mentor to me as a new teacher. She had such a genuine, loving way with the children. "Hands are for loving, " she always told the children. And they listened! One parent who had four boys told Adele she could not retired until she taught her youngest boy. Adele did teach all four of her sons. As a lead teacher at CDLC all teachers counted on her support. As lead teacher she had the dubious job of washing all the towels we used in the week. I jokingly called her the bleach queen. What a gift it has been to have known and worked with such an incredibly gifted teacher and the kindest, gentlest person.
