Adele went to Soldan High School and played the drums in the marching band. After graduation, she attended Miss Hickey’s Training School for Secretaries. With these professional skills, Adele started working for Standard Oil Company, first in New York and then in Chicago. She returned to St. Louis in 1972 and worked as a secretary for the city of Overland until her retirement.

Adele had quite a few talents. Her tennis skills could have taken her to Wimbledon. She played the piano and would often play tunes at social events. For several years, Adele was a scout leader for a girl scout troop at the JCCA. Her all-time favorite was attending family gatherings. You could always find Adele snapping pictures and then sharing these treasured photos with others.
