She was the youngest of seven, born in Talisayan, Misamis Oriental, Mindanao, Philippines. Predeceased by her parents, Valerina and Jose. Adelfa raised her three children in the Philippines before moving to Canada. In 1984, Adelfa and her daughters, Rose and Luisa moved to Victoria to join her eldest, Jossie.
