Anyone who knew Madlyn, as I had the pleasure of doing, will immediately think of her quick wit, her ever-giving smile, and a radiance as bright as her famous sunflowers. The kindness she extended to me fulfilled, in the truest sense, the great commandment of "loving one's neighbor." May God bless her and her wonderful family.

Dear Jill, Not sure if you remember me, but we went to St. Catherine's together and to Brown Deer High. My husband's Mom passed away the same day your Mom did, and as I was reading the obits, I saw "Heavern" and realized it was your Mom. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. Deepest sympathies to you and your family.

I am going to miss Grammy so much, but I am comforted by all of the great memories I have of her. I loved how she always joked with me that she was stealing away DJ :) and that she was always on the lookout for a new frog for me. She was warm, generous, loving... all of the things a great Grammy should be. I am lucky to have had her in my life.

To Madlyn's family, My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Had a great time with a fantastic lady. I enjoyed cleaning her room at CSM, never knew what was coming out of her nor my mouth. Laughed alot. It took me awhile to figure out how I knew the family, it was talking to Kelly and she mentioned Mike. Mike worked for me when I owned Grafton Sub Shop...What a small world My best to you all. Remind Joe to keep his feet clean.. God Bless
