Adeline Ann Orozco Obituary (1959

Adeline A. Orozco, our beloved sister, mother, aunt, niece, cousin, and friend, began her transitional journey ascending with the angels on Tuesday, August 16, 2022. She courageously battled cancer for a short time. Adeline was surrounded by her family and left us knowing she was loved and very precious to each one of us. She has always been loving, kind and polite throughout her life and it continued until her passing. Adeline was born November 28, 1959, in Toppenish, Washington. Adeline was the fourth child of six children, born to Frank S. and Esther D. Orozco. She was affectionately known Cha-Cha/Chach, a nickname lovingly given to her by her dad. Adeline graduated from Wapato High School in 1978 and went on to college. Her time as a Wapato Wolf was such a joyful time for her, as she was varsity cheerleader, her junior year she was captain of the drill team, had a good spike for volleyball, and was voted most popular in her class. She has always been beautiful, vivacious, and friendly. In her early adulthood, Adeline was diagnosed with schizophrenia and was absent from our lives, living in California until early 2000. We are grateful for her return to the Yakima area and thankful for the compassionate treatment and care she received that allowed her to live with her condition. We are especially thankful for Loretta Pechtel, Bert Siefring, Linda Hurley Castilleja, Sandra Cavazos and her sister, Carol for their loyal care, as well as their genuine friendship. This allowed her to be herself. Funny, vivacious wise, candid, loving, beautiful Adeline. We take comfort in knowing she will be the winner of all pageant awards in Heaven.
