Ada June Wooden was a resident of Louisville, Kentucky, who died on October 29, 2026, at the age of 90.

What is known about her comes from the obituary published through her funeral home, which describes a private life centered on family rather than public life.

Ada was born Ada June Linebaugh on November 24, 1935, the daughter of John Linebaugh and Nina June Linebaugh. Public sources do not currently confirm her place of birth, her education, or her working life, and no further detail about her early years or community involvement in the Louisville area has been published.

She married Homer Wooden, who died before her, and the couple raised a family.

Ada is survived by her loving family, daughters, Nina Nakasone, Beth Chalifoux; grandchildren, Heather Chalifoux, Sarah Chalifoux; great-grandchildren, Anthony Eastridge, Hayden Eastridge, Candice Eastridge; as well as a host of extended family and friends to cherish her loving memory forever.

Her parents and her husband had both died before her.

What made Ada June Wooden matter to the people who knew her was not public achievement but the ordinary and significant work of family life.

Ada was a loving and devoted wife, mother, and Mamaw to her beloved grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Her obituary notes that she will be deeply missed by all who had the honor of knowing her.

Ada June Wooden, 90, of Louisville, Kentucky, passed away peacefully on Thursday, October 29, 2026.

No cause of death has been made public. She is to be laid to rest at a veterans cemetery in Kentucky, a detail that suggests a family connection to military service, though that connection has not otherwise been explained in the sources available at this writing.

Her passing was announced through an obituary published by Newcomer Cremations, Funerals and Receptions in Louisville, rather than through a statement from the family in the wider press, consistent with her life as a private individual rather than a public figure. The notice confirms that she was preceded in death by her parents, John Linebaugh and Nina June Linebaugh, and by her husband, Homer Wooden.

She is survived by her daughters, Nina Nakasone and Beth Chalifoux, by her grandchildren, Heather Chalifoux and Sarah Chalifoux, and by her great-grandchildren, Anthony Eastridge, Hayden Eastridge, and Candice Eastridge, along with extended family and friends who are described in her obituary as cherishing her memory.

Ada will be laid to rest at a later date at Kentucky Veterans Cemetery Central in Radcliff, Kentucky. In lieu of flowers, her family has asked that contributions in her memory be made to the Humane Society. No public memorial service beyond the planned interment has been announced as of this writing, and if one is held it is expected to be a private family occasion rather than a public event.
