Hello family and friends,
This will likely be my last post to the memorial website for Buster (Jim) and Todd Madsen. Words cannot express my innermost feelings about both of you, and also your parents Mike and Vera.
During WW2, you twins enlisted in the US Navy and upon peril of your lives, swore to defend our Nation, and did so. Fortunately, you survived, came home, and continued to exhibit the very admirable traits of your mother and father.

My Dad and Uncle Todd are now gone. They died within 6 months of each other. I will miss both of them very much.

I will miss you very much Todd. I know that you and Dad are together again. Someday we will all be together, I miss you both.
Love Lynn

Todd's passing was expected but it is still tough when I think about all of the memories. We are having his memorial service today at noon in the chapel at the Lutheran Home. Todd loved his family and we all loved him. He was an important part of our family and we are all going...

Hello Family and Friends.

I just posted pictures of the Pamphlet at Jim’s Memorial Service. To view them, click on "View the Photo Gallery" link in the column to the right.

Unfortunately, I had to adjust the picture sizes to less than 600 pixels in height, making the text not very readable. (This limitation is imposed by Legacy.com).

At a later date, I'll endevor to produce a file for public viewing, with full-size pictures.
