Stevenson and Sons Funeral Home
Adeline Yates of Miles City, Montana died on July 5, 2022.
In her final days, Adeline said, "When someone dies, they always write the person died peacefully, surrounded by family and that's what I want to do." Anyone who knew Adeline also knew she accomplished whatever she set out to do, so she did, indeed, die peacefully, surrounded by family.
Adeline was born to Emilie and Albert Wiederrich on November 17, 1937, in Fort Peck, Montana.
She was the tenth of twelve children.
After several moves, the family eventually settled in Havre, Montana, where Adeline graduated from high school and later met and married the love of her life, Byron Yates.
Byron and Adeline moved to Malta, Montana, where they raised their three daughters.
Adeline kept her life in Malta very busy as a wife, mother, and entrepreneur, running her own women's clothing store,
Adeline's World, for several years.
After a brief stint in Chinook, Montana, where Adeline began her new career in banking, she and Byron moved to Great Falls, Montana, where Byron passed away in 2011. Adeline later moved to Miles City to be near family.
Adeline had a fierce and quick wit, was an avid reader, and kept her mind sharp with daily crosswording. She also raised any craft she engaged in to the level of art. She was a lifelong, highly skilled knitter and took up beading in her retirement, creating fun, whimsical, intricate, and beautiful pieces using multiple techniques.
She was also a wonderful cook and delighted in sharing her special tips and tricks up until the very end, including explaining, while resting in her hospital bed, how to make her tasty knoephla noodles.
Adeline also had a special love for all things ladybug, which led to a home filled with many decorative ladybug items, as well as her family nickname, Grandma Ladybug.
Adeline is preceded in death by her husband, parents, and eight siblings.
She is survived by her daughters, Martina Hould (Byron), Kimberley Putzke (Robert), Shawnmarie Stanton (Roy); and her grandchildren and great grandchildren, Sam Hould (Keely; children Emma, Haley, Wren, and Lachlan); Jamie Hould (Erin; children Austin, Tristan, and Trafton); Danielle Venn (Jason; children Mija, Morgan, Rigby, and Brekken); Nicholle Ryan and Christopher Ryan Parker (Haley).
The family will hold a private celebration of life at a later date.
