I want to offer my condolences to you as you grieve Madeline’s passing. Mom (Audrey) always spoke so kindly and lovingly of her younger days when she and Madeline played together as children. She was so very happy to visit last summer when we took a day trip to the area. She enjoyed so very much visiting with you both and with Shelley. Mom always had fond memories of her cousins growing up.
Take care. You are all in our thoughts.
