Our dear ALWAYS ON WATCH has passed away!! I just wanted to write my own weak attempt at a salute to our Ada, known to us bloggers as ALWAYS ON WATCH for many years.
I can only write what I know and I encourage those of you who knew her to add anything you’d like into Comments.
A proud Virginian, Ada was a professional home schooler who was happily married to Dave, who became ill with, I believe, strokes, and who she cared for through his challenges for many years. She and I shared a dear friend, Patricia, who helped Ada when Dave became more and more ill. Patricia passed away probably about 15 years ago; I am not sure when, but I am sure that she and Ada had a very dear friendship.
THIS was Ada’s blog; ALWAYS ON WATCH. She was always ON WATCH for AMERICA.
When Dave passed, Ada married a dear friend, Warren, who had sadly lost his wife not too long before. Ada and Warren had stayed close, married, and Ada went to another state to be his dear wife! (I don’t remember which state…but I know someone will!) They had only a few years together, we learn today, but it sounded like very good years from things Ada wrote.
Ada had a radio show for a few years, with a partner who I liked but can’t remember his name!….Among some of her other blogger friends, she’d asked me one day to call in for an interview; it was fun and well received, from what she told me. Our dear friend MUSTANG was a guest on her show, too. Maybe some of you were?
ADA was a decent, strong patriot, a very good person in every good way. Frequently, she’d mention how a homeschooled student of hers would contact her from college, or after a marriage! Their parents and they stayed in touch with their dear teacher and friend. They just loved her!
PLEASE, anybody who’d like to correct anything I have remembered above, let me know in Comments…or ADD anything there which you’d like to add!
May the memory of our dear ALWAYS ON WATCH stay with us all….May we all keep fighting the fight for America, in her dear memory!
