"God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be nor more death, nor sorrow, nor crying…" ~Revelation 21:4. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held for Edmonia Marie Adams on Friday, July 11, 2014, 11:00 AM at Our Lady Queen of Peace Catholic Church. She will be buried in Calvary Cemetery, Lafayette, LA.

On Wednesday, July 9, 2014, Edmonia ("Monie") slipped away peacefully surrounded by her family. Monie, as she was so affectionately called by those who knew her, was a graduate of Northside High School-Class of 1985. She was a dedicated wife and mother and loved her family unconditionally. Monie lived life to the fullest and enjoyed having fun. For the last 14 years she dedicated her love and compassion to the children at Butterflies Preschool. Her jovial, fun-loving spirit will be deeply treasured by all those who knew her. Memories will be cherished forever by her loving, devoted husband, Leonard Adams of Lafayette, LA; her children, Lenordo Adams and Breiona Adams, both of Lafayette, LA; one sister, Cora Siner-Mills-Dawson (Leon); a host of step-brothers and step-sisters; one god-son, Amari Malveaux; and a host of aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins, countless friends and neighbors who were blessed to know her.

Siner; her mother and father in law, Harry and Julia Adams; maternal grandparents, Erick and Agnes Chaisson; paternal grandmother, Aline Bernard; sister, Mary Ann Thomas; aunts, Bernice Zenon and Mary Lee Zenon; uncles, Albert "Bubby" Siner and Albert Zenon.
