Ada Elder was born on January 21, 1943 in Mascot, Tennessee to Mary and L.C. Richardson. She was the youngest of four children. She departed this life on the morning of Friday, February 20, 2015 at Hospice of Dayton.

As a girl she attended Austin High School and later attended art school in Chicago, IL. Once she moved to Dayton she found Mount Carmel Missionary Baptist Church and made it her home until she fell ill. Ada enjoyed spending time with family and friends. She loved to draw and paint with her grandchildren. Her greatest joy was helping out the church bus drivers by calling and arranging the pickup times for those who needed transportation.

Ada leaves to cherish her memories: three sisters, two daughters, a son, seven grandchildren, and a host of other relatives and friends.
