When Ada was 3 years old her family moved to Kansas City, MO. so she could attend the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Elementary school for handicapped children. They eventually moved back to Holton, KS where she attended Colorado Elementary and graduated from Holton High School. She then attended Clark’s Business School in Topeka, KS.

She worked for the Kansas State Income Tax agency in Topeka until her marriage to Louis E. Millenbruch on September 2, 1955 at First Christian Church in Holton, KS.

She then became a devoted wife and mother. While their first home was in Hiawatha, KS it would not be their last as Lou’s employer, IBM, moved them throughout the United States and overseas. She made a home in over 30 locations including Beijing China.

Retirement brought them to Winfield, KS where she enjoyed traveling around the United States, mostly to casinos, and quiet days at home. Since July of 2018 she has resided at Winfield Senior Living where she established many new friends and “family”. She was a member of the Grandview United Methodist Church.
