Several majestic Ada trees couldn't stand up to the June 29 high winds
Some of Ada's oldest residents - trees that have watched this community experience World Wars, the Great Depression, and even the turn of an earlier century - couldn't survive the June 29 severe weather that struck Ohio.
Another victim of the high winds wasthe Ada Baptist Church, which has a construction project underway.
Several aftermath storm photos are posted below. The Icon invites viewers to send photos and stories of their experiences on June 29.
By Sunday afternoon Ada curbsides were piled with branches that fell on Friday.
