Ada LaReen Simons Lake, 81, surrounded by her family, passed away in her Grantsville home the evening of Oct. 26, 2019.
Ada was born April 12, 1938, at her home in Mount Pleasant, Utah, to Alden Levi and Fontella Simons. She was born in the middle of 11 siblings.
On March 18, 1958, Ada married her very best friend, Oneil Lake. They were later sealed for all eternity in the LDS temple. Neil and Ada were married for 62 years. Throughout their time they were blessed with eight beautiful daughters, 27 grandchildren, and 52 great-grandchildren.
Ada was the most loving mother and grandmother; she dedicated her life to loving and supporting her kids.
Ada was a wonderful cook. She always made sure she had a good dinner on the table, and spent many years in restaurants sharing her talents with the public.
Ada also took pride in her beautiful yard. Right up to the days before her passing Ada spent most of her time either working in the yard, or enjoying the view from her swing.
Ada is survived by her daughters, Cindy Langford-Hunter, Leann Jorgensen (Larry), Kathleen Hunt (Arnie), Shonna Wilcox (Rory), Vickie Lake, Rebecca Lake, Jenny Mecham (Chad); her grandchildren and great-grandchildren; and her siblings, Boyce (Toad), Gayle, and Shanna.
Ada was preceded in death by her husband, Oneil; her daughter, Shanna; her great-grandsons, Larry, Kaden, and Carson; her son-in-law, Steven; and her mother, father, four brothers and four sisters.
