I LOVED my Aunt Adele!!! I LOVED how she welcomed me into her life, and treated me like her special neice. No matter when it was, she always made everyone around her smile. I admired her strength, to speak her mind, no matter what other thought. "RIGHT ON ADELE!!!She was an inspiration to me, and will always be in my heart.

We sure had great time as young girls in high school and being neighbors in the Sunset District of San Francisco. Adele was to be my matron of honor but was very very pregnant and could not participate at my wedding in 1962. I went to visit her in San Lois Obispo while honeymooning and stayed at the Madonna Inn a newly and partially built inn. The last time together we went to our Lincoln High School reunion and enjoyed our memories. Sadly our last conversation was a call of her last task in life, to fight cancer. God bless her and her wonderful spirit, always laughing with a great sense or humor.
Love to the family.

Geoff & Scott - We had so many laughs and great conversations at 6:45a.m. She was so loved,respected and admired. A wonderful woman who gentlely spoke her mind and had a wonderful sense of humor! She will be sorely missed by all. Our thoughts and prayers are with you both and your families. God gives us special gracies to get through our sadness and pain.
Judy Allen, Marlboro, Ma.

Scott, Geoff, family and Adele, my sister who also is my best friend. We stacked up a lot of memories together and so much laughter over the years. We will so miss, the teasing, the racing debates, cheering on our football team, etc. There just isn't room for all that we shared, but as time goes on we will have such good things to remember. You are a wonderful sister, a great best friend and you've always made us so proud. Thanks for enhancing our lives, we'll always love you, miss being able to hug you but you will always be with us. Geoff, Scott, Larry and all of Adele's loved ones, we hurt for your sadness as well as our on. We are always here for you. God Bless all of you. All our love, Walt and Gaye Carmichael, all of our family and Nicole, Becka's Mom

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.
