Consolacion Adao's Obituary
In Loving Memory of CONSOLACION ADAO, 94
Beloved Mother, Grandmother, Great-Grandmother, Relative and Friend
With hearts full of love and gratitude, the family of Consalacion Adao announces her peaceful passing. She lived a life defined by kindness, hard work, and boundless love for her family.
Born to Juan Avis and Pedro Parumog in the Philippines, the seventh of eighth children, the only girl who survived among them all. Consolacion grew up with deep sense of faith, family and resilience that would guide her throughout her long and meaningful life. She attended Trade School in Cabanatuan, Nueva Ecija, where she studied cosmetology and dressmaking — skills that became both her passion and livelihood. It was there she met the love of her life, Nemesio Abling Adao, whom she married on February 17, 1953. Together, they built a home filled with laughter, faith, and dedication, celebrating 50 years of marriage before Nemesio’s passing.
In her younger years, she ran a bustling dressmaking shop and home salon, where her creativity and talent shone through every stitch and style. Later, after migrating to America in April 1987, she worked with quiet strength and dignity as a laundry attendant at Cintas Corporation until her retirement.
She is lovingly survived by her children Rosemarie David (Ruben), Noel Adao (Cristina), Connie Capunitan (Roel), Maricel Kielkopf (Walter), and Maela Adao (Hung).
She is preceded in death by her beloved sons Rustico Adao and Nemesio Adao Jr. (Thelma).
Her legacy continues through her cherished grandchildren — Roseanne, Reggie, Raven, Kim, Kamae, Kelvin, Kenneth, Carizza, Derrick, Leor, Skye, Jaden, Zyra, and Zachy — and her adored great-grandchildren — Nate, Alex, Jasmine, Gabby, Iya, Ivo, Tammy, Caicai, Keith, Kate, and Juno.
Known for her sweet and generous spirit, she was the heart of every family gathering and a source of warmth to all who knew her. She loved to watch television, chat with relatives over the phone, and even in her later years, she made sure to stay active with exercise, showing her resilience and zest for life.
She will be remembered as a loving, caring, and dedicated mother, grandmother, and aunt, whose hands worked tirelessly and whose heart gave endlessly. Her memory will live on in the laughter of her grandchildren, the strength of her children, and the love that binds her family together.
Her family takes comfort in knowing she is now reunited with her beloved husband and sons, resting in peace and eternal love.
Relatives and friends are invited to attend her visitation on Thursday evening, November 6th, at Givnish of Marlton, 398 East Main Street, from 6 pm to 8 pm. A second visitation will be held on Friday, November 7th, at St. Christopher's Parish, 13301 Proctor Rd., Philadelphia, PA from 10 am to 11 am, followed by her funeral Mass at 11 am. Interment will take place at Resurrection Cemetery, 5201 Hulmeville Rd., Bensalem, PA.
