Laurel, Hadi, Martin and Claudia
There are no words to tell you how deeply saddened we all are to hear about Maddie's passing. We have not stopped talking about her and our great "three peat" basketball team from Wayside days. The guys can't stop commenting on what a great basketball player she was to coach - always trying her hardest to do the very best she could for her team. After reading her blog, it appears that she continued to live her life out in the same way. How very proud you must be of the woman she grew up to be.
You are in out thoughts and our prayers as you go through this most difficult time. We hope and pray that you can find peace and comfort in the many great memories you have of your very special daughter.
Judy, Michael, Zack, Adam and Lindsay Hotchkiss
