Ada Morris, a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, passed away on October 15, 2023, at the Doctor's Community Rehabilitation Center in Lanham, MD. She was born on December 17, 1947, to the late Madison Boyd Sr. and Annie Nelson Boyd in Lancaster, County, VA.

Ada was baptized at the Beulah Baptist Church, Lively, VA at an early age and was active singing in choir with her sisters. She always supported the church and many charitable organizations. Ada attended Mollusk Elementary School and later graduated from Brookvale High School in Lancaster County, VA in 1966. After graduation, she joined in holy matrimony to the late Franklin Morris on November 5, 1966, and to this union two daughters were born, Vera (Tina) Morris-Bushrod and Renee A. Brown. They relocated to the Northern VA area and Ada worked for Dewberry and Davis as a draftsman until her health began to fail and had to go out on disability. They later united with the Oak Grove Baptist Church in Sterling, VA and were very active members for over 40 years. Ada served as a deaconess, financial secretary, choir member, and a missionary. Ada was an active prayer warrior and believed God to provide a kidney for her that was greatly needed. Her faith kept her strong through everything she went through in her lifetime. One of her many favorite scriptures was Romans 8:18 "For I consider that the suffering of this present time is not worthy to be compared to the glory that shall be revealed to us." God answered her prayers and allowed her to receive a kidney through her sister, Hilda that lasted close to 30 years! One of her favorite songs was "I Know What Prayer Can Do!"
