I would like to take an opportunity to voice my opinion on an issue that impacts the Village I have called home for the last 21 years (I am 21 years old). In January of this year, I was sworn in as an Ada Village Councilor. I looked forward to representing my community and surrounding myself with people who want the best for their community.
Norma Mathews Wilhelm, formerly of Ada, died on July 14, 2026, in Dublin, Ohio. She was born on May 15, 1931, in Springfield, Illinois, to Esther Fenton Mathews and Harry Herschel Mathews. She grew up in Greenview, Illinois with her sister, Pearl, and brother, John. They all were beloved by her and preceded her in death. In 1951, she married Dale Leroy Wilhelm, and they loved and supported each other for 65 years.
