Was an absolute pleasure to care for Ada over the past 4 years. A gentle soul who always had a kind smile and manner. Thoughts and much love to the family. Fly free on the wings of your angel Ada and rest easy on its back. xx

To all of Ada's family, special thoughts to Bernie XX Your mother was one amazing lady which I am so thankful for, sadly when my dear Mum went into Marinoto Rest Home your Mother was there and a friendship formed between the two of them. Most of the times when I found Mum Ada was beside her side, so thank you Ada. I hope in time as a family all those special memories will bring you comfort. RIP dear Ada
