    I met Aunt Ada at a Chandlier reunion. She was soo vivacious and welcoming. Every year we would get a Christmas card, including last year, with a virtual hug. I'm going to miss those. My husband, Raymond, was her great nephew and she always remembered our whole family names. Aunt Ada was one the Lord's chosen and was genuinely prayerful. She will be missed by many but heaven gained a true angel!!!

    Ada was such a sweet and compassionate lady. I didn't know her well but could feel her love whenever we met. Heaven has a new very special angel.

    I worked at North School when Ada was there, and my son had her for first grade. I always admired her, and the many things she did with her class. Every afternoon, I would hear her playing the piano in her room. At that time every teacher had a piano in their room. On warm days she would take her class outside, and she would play her accordian with her class singing along.. After she retired, she went on a trip to Africa, and when she returned she stopped by and showed us the pictures she took. There was Mrs. Olsen standing in the middle of a group of natives, My condolences to her family and friends, It was a pleasure to know you Mrs. Olsen.
