Adina was the fourth child of John Thomas Clark and Johanna Magdelena "Lena" Steinhilber.

As a young lady, Adina learned to play the piano and played the local theater's piano for the silent movies. Her father John owned a livery stable, and when newcomers came to live in their town, it was Adina's job to take them out to see homesteads in the family's Model T Ford, driving backward up hills to keep the engine fueled.

Adina married Howard Mitchell Keithler on 5 September 1919, in Hysham, Treasure, Montana. They had three children.

During World War II, they moved to the Pacific Northwest to work in the shipyards, settling eventually in Vancouver where they lived until Howard died.

Adina was a wonderful daughter, wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother. She was a tough lady who lived through much heartache throughout her life, and still found joy and goodness in life.
