Our sissy, Ada, went home on April 11, 2026 at 6:45 PM, while being held in her loving parents arms. Ada Beth Threet was born on August 27, 2025 to Tyler and Alyssa Threet, in Provo Utah, sister to Cohen Threet. Shortly after birth Ada was diagnosed with a terminal condition, Pontocerebellar Hypoplasia, she fought much longer than was expected and we enjoyed every moment with our little old lady.
In life Ada was a gatherer. She had a visitor nearly every day and she brought together so many people. Ada truly encompasses so many of Christ's attributes of faith, hope, charity, and perfection. Having her in our home was like having a sliver of the divine with us at all times. Ada gave many opportunities for people to serve, to gain perspective, to feel peace, to see a glimmer of what Heaven is like, and to feel the love God has for each of His children. He sent her here with that very special mission and she accomplished that and more in her short 7 months.
Ada Beth spent all her time surrounded by loving family and friends. She went everywhere we did and got to experience a lot of things. These experiences include museums, train rides, the mountains, several holidays from Halloween to Easter, a bull riding competition, and so much more though her absolute favorite thing to do was swimming.
Ada loved spending time with her big brother Cohen. If Cohen was out of bed she wanted to be up too. She loved his kisses and hugs and the sounds of him playing. They both enjoyed playing excavators and chase together. The snowman movie (Frozen) will always be theirs now. They watched it together often, and it was the movie they were watching together when Ada crossed over to the other side of the veil. Cohen always wanted Ada included, making sure she had clothes and shoes to go outside (they were always his clothes and shoes he shared), and that she had a matching toy to play with. He never wanted to leave her behind when doing an outing.
Ada's favorite place was in daddy's arms. Daddy was the one who could always calm her, who held her just right, who was her safe place. Daddy always treated her as the little munchkin she was. He never was scared to play with her, to tease her, to give her the real dad experience. She was his snuggle bug and sweet companion.
Ada was mommy's other half and they were never too far from each other. Ada was always a very dedicated nap partner and wasn't shy to snooze away. The comfort and peace she felt while her mommy was close could be seen on her serene little face every time they were together. Ada and mommy shared lots of kisses, pedicures, crafts, dances, and time together.
Because she is better than all of us, she had a short mission to fulfill here on earth. She accomplished it and she was able to go home, but Ada chose to stay for longer, just for us. Ada's impact is deep, and will continue to be far reaching. She is deeply wanted and will always be deeply missed. Our lives were much richer with her in it.
She is survived by her parents Tyler and Alyssa, and her doting brother Cohen. Grandparents Benjamin and Malynda Threet, David and Jennifer Blackburn. Aunts and uncles BreAnna and Dylan Anderson, Emily and Jeff Skalla, Riley Livingston and Hayden Westfall, Tara and Bud Hobbs and Madison Threet. And her loving cousins, Paisley and Hazel, Lincoln and Oakley, and Cienna. As well as countless extended family and the many friends she made in her short life.
She is preceded in death by her namesake, auntie Beth Malmborg. Great grandparents Marva and Tom Watson, Que and Barbara Blackburn, and Gary Livingston.
To our friends and family: it takes a village to raise a child, but we would argue that it takes a city to bury one. Thank you for being our city. From checking in on us, to meals, money, laundry, cleaning, gifts, yard and livestock care, to watching or offering to watch our Cohen or dog Governor, running errands and getting us supplies and being our soundboard, a listening ear, a shoulder to cry on, and most importantly sharing a laugh together. We could not have done this without you all. Thank you for loving our girl.
A special thanks to all those who helped us take care of our Ada girl. First, thank you to the staff at Utah Valley NICU, specifically Dr. Susan Morelli, who told us of our little babes prognosis so delicately and Dr. Nick Carr for helping us get her home, as well as our dear nurses who looked after and loved her, Kiah, Audrey, Danielle, Eliza, Shannon, Alice, Heather and Ashlee, as well as our lovely respiratory therapists Reggie and Lynn.
