Per her obituary, Adelheid is buried in Resurrection. Unfortunately, church and cemetery records from approximately 1902-1914 were destroyed at some point. Family stories tell us that Johann and Adelheid are buried alongside their granddaughter Helen Diebold (1906-1909) in Section 1, Block 2. This is a large plot, listed in cemetery maps as being owned by "Mrs. Rosalia Diebold" (perhaps a mistaken transcription for Adelheid?). The only visable gravestone is for Helen.

My grandmother (Mary Diebold) once approached the groundskeeper (sometime in the 1950s) in an effort to find out where they were buried. She says that he pulled out an old and faded book with handwritten burials entered on the pages. Though the ink was faded, she could see, up-side-down, while he searched right-side-up, the name Diebolt and the names of her great-grandparents. He didn't see it, "the idiot!" (as she would say) and told her he could not find them in the records.
