It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Christine Ann Madden, of Delmar, MD, who went peacefully on Sunday, June 23, 2024, at the age of 59. Born on September 26, 1964, in Sharon, PA, she was a daughter of the late Edward Arthur Madden and Mary Ann McWilliams Madden.
Chris was a woman of many passions, with a particular love for traveling the world, often finding solace on the open seas during her cherished cruises. Her heart overflowed with affection for her furry companions, Lucian and Gabby, her beloved Lhasa Apsos who brought her immense joy throughout their lives together.
As President of Delmarva Aluminum Company, Christine's leadership and dedication were unwavering, leaving a lasting impact on all who had the privilege of working alongside her. Her commitment to excellence and compassion towards others shone brightly in both her personal and professional life. She was a lifelong member of St. Francis de Sales Catholic Church in Salisbury.
She is survived by sisters, Cindy Madden of Salisbury, Sheila Kinley of Delmar and Heather Madden of Florida; nephews, Devin Kinley and Brandon Kinley; great niece, Kendra Faucette; and brother-in-law, James Kinley.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by a nephew, Vince Kinley.
A private service will be held to honor Chris' life.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to A Pet For Life, Inc., at 28215 Log Cabin Road, Salisbury, MD 21801, a cause close to Chris' heart.
Online condolences may be sent to the family by visiting www.shortfh.com.

Sheila and family, I am so sorry for your loss. I spoke to her a couple of months ago and we caught up on our comings and goings. Hope her beloved dog finds a happy home.
