Adeline was born in Des Moines and graduated from Lincoln High in 1941. She lived for her family, friends, church and sports. Her grandchildren and great-grandchildren were her pride and joy, especially watching them play sports. Adeline tried never to miss a game for those that lived close. She also loved her red hat society, traveling, baking, cooking and watching all sports, both college and professional. She loved her town and was an avid supporter of Indianola high school, Simpson and ISU. She was even awarded IHS volunteer/fan of the year in 2001, one of her proudest moments.
