Ada graduated from New Iberia Senior High in 1980 and then attended USL. ?Ada graduated from a local business college. ?After a brief period away from New Iberia, she returned and has worked at Castaing, Hussey & Lolan LLC for 18 years. Her only hobby was anything that involved family. ?Ada was ""Nanny"" to several generations but did not limit herself to the immediate family. Ada was a life coach. ?She facilitated paths in life for us in our time of need. ?She just started asking questions, mostly about nothing; then it happened. ?You knew what needed to be done, even if it wasn't what you wanted to do. ?She also often gave lessons on finance, relationships but especially on love. ?As a peacemaker, she could calm anyone down. ?She could also get anyone excited! ?But best of all; she shared her sense of humor. Pellerin Funeral Home of New Iberia is in charge of arrangements. For those who wish to make donations in lieu of flowers, the family will accept donations payable to Janet Derouen to assist her sister Octavia Guidry with the ""Very Special Bowling League"".
