Lana Grezaud
so sorry for you loss..this is a complete shock to come on here and see Madelyn’s passing….I can remember when her and Roddie and my mom and dad were in a cb club together (I was probably around 8-9 years old)…. over the years, Madelyn always stopped and talked when she saw me…..and for a few years she kept me in black berry jam (she was the only one who could come close to making it like my grandmother) and give me recipes for her pies…oh how she baked pies and would tease Roddie about not being allowed to eat them…and one time she told us the story about Roddie taking a spoon and eating the whole inside of the pie and leaving the crust, I can’t remember if it was lemon or coconut cream. Those two always had a funny story to tell….. I still use her “secret” recipe for meringue to this day….just know that you are in my prayers during this difficult time…..and that it is the special memories that will help you get through this…
