Tom, Mary and all Madden's -

Dear Bill and family:
Nancy was a lovely warmhearted woman and her spirit will remain in all of us as we remember this beautiful woman. Life is full of journeys we don't plan but Nancy showed us how to take the high road worth seeking. The world shines brightly with her memory. Our sympathy to her family.

Dear Madden Family,
I have to smile when I recall the many evenings and 'adventures' that centered around the Madden household over the years. Nancy and Bill always opened their home to us at a moments notice and Nancy's homemade treats were always waiting. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers during this very sad time. Nancy's patience, welcome hospitality and the many laughs that were shared with your family over the years will never be forgotten.
