Hey Adele,

Went to the beach for a week in Monterey, CA. Weather was fabulous! Waves were minimal , so no surfing this trip. We took our mountain bikes and rode for hours along the PCH (Pacific Coast Highway) bike trail. WE were too tired to do the 17 mile loop inside Pebble Beach, next trip. Thought of you often during our rides, beautiful flowers and wonderful homes a cottages especially in Pacific Grove. Your birthday is around the corner I will write back then. Sure do miss you!

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Sally Price

February 5, 2006

Hi Adele,

I know you are not here but this makes it easier to be able to say things to you, like I miss you and wish your were still here but whole instead of sick. I came across the letter you were asked to write by your professor to Mommie as if she were still alive, it was so totally you, warm, kind, compassionate and forgiving. I really miss you, our many talks and the special times we had together.



Love you, your baby sister.

Adele I enjoyed the few lunches we had together at Orlando Regional. Your voice when calling into Richards work was always upbeat and full of of a smile. You trained Richard just right, he was a great co-worker and has always been so proud of you and Scotty. The love and gratitude for your family continually shone through our phone conversations. Thanks for all the many years of Birthday and Christmas gifts given to me by you and Richard. And to the rest of us left for our journey here we have the hope of eternal life through Christ our Lord that "God will wipe away every tear from our eyes".



See you in heaven some day!

Adele,



Eventhough we did not have much time to spend with each other due to our distance, being family naturally ties us together. I remember one particular visit when you, Larry, and I went to the San Diego Zoo and saw a concert. All I kept thinking was my aunt Adele is wild and crazy. That character is a bond that keeps all the Landsdale sisters unique and together - keep rockin!

Christie Stryker

February 9, 2005

Aunt Adele,

I wish we could of had more times together. My favorite time with you was skating down Venice Beach, Ca. and you were so hoping to run into David Lee Roth from Van Hallen! You were so much fun to hang out with, and I was only 10 or 11 y/o. I will miss you, but you are where we all can only imagine, HEAVEN, and in His arms where you have no more tears, pain or weakness. God Bless You and your family. We were all so blessed to have had you in our lives. All our love, Christie, Jay, Taylor, Jaymie and Ava Stryker.

Katie Weedon

February 6, 2005

Aunt Adele, you and Mom were the strongest people I knew. Even when you were at your worst you never showed it. I know both of you are now looking down on us as angels and laughing at all the stupid things we do...hehe. I just wanted to share a part of a song that is very dear to me since it was played at my friend Chads funeral service..."And He will raise you up on eagles wings,

bear you on the breath of dawn,

make you to shine like the sun,

and hold you in the palm of His hand." I love you.

Margie Tomkiewicz

February 6, 2005

Adele, my sister-in-law, my friend. The suffering is gone and you are now resting comfortably and with very good company I might add. May the angels be forever at your side. Love, Margie

Adele,

It was my pleasure and honor to have known you and been friends. Our family loved you dearly. As you look down on all of us you will know how deeply you were loved and will be missed. I cannot begin to imagine how Rick and your boys will miss you. I am only grateful that you are no longer suffering. God Speed Adele, I'll see you in heaven.

All my love, Stef
