She was the wife of the late Wilfred Moss. A graduate of Fairhaven High School, Ada married in 1944, raised four children, and traveled the world in her later years. A high energy fitness buff blessed with excellent health, she was a Life Member at Rockland Country Club, played her last round in May of this year, and as an adult went to the gym regularly through her 90th year. She played duplicate bridge for over 50 years and always strove to keep her mind and body active. Most of all, she loved her role as a mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. A lifelong member of the Congregational Church, she was a member of churches in Mattapoisett, St. Johnsbury, and for 50 years, of the Pilgrim Church in Duxbury.
