Madeleine A. Basinsky

Dear Rebecca and the entire Basinsky family - I am deeply sorry for the loss of your dear Mom. I will always remember the warm and loving kindness she always showed me, especially after I lost my Mom. She always found a kind or supportive word to share with me, and it was a pleasure just to be around her. What a good person God put on this earth and I feel blessed to have known her - and may I say, what an incredible sense of fashion she had. It seems perfectly in keeping with the beautiful person she was inside and out. I can only imagine your grief right now and I pray God will help you through it and bring you comfort. Please know you are and will remain in my prayers.

It is with profound sadness that I just now learned of the passing of my dear friend, Madeleine. I am so very sorry for your loss. What an incredible, gracious and wonderful woman she was. She meant so much to my wife Joanne and myself. Please know I would have been there for visitation and Mass services had I known in time, but please also know I am praying for the repose of Madeleine's soul and for all of you, her family, that God will heal you in your sorrow and bring you peace. May it comfort you to know her gentle spirit and loving ways will live on in you always. With deepest condolences and love to all of you.

Dear Basinsky family - My first entry got submitted before it was finished. Your parents were the heart and soul of St. Sylvester Parish. They and several other of their friends from the parish are what made St. Sylvester such a great place to be a member.
My deepest sympathy on the loss now of both your parents.

I have such wonderful memories of golfing for many years on the Partridge Pairs league with Madeleine. Such a great Christian lady! Oh,The fun we had golfing and having lunch. Such a fun time. Love the memories. God bless her family and give them His peace.

I have had the Pleasure of meeting Madeline only a few months ago, but somehow feels like a life time. I instantly loved her. She had a wonderful heart strong faith and impeccable style with clothing. She had her crosses to bear but never complained. I will never forget her or the impact she left in my life. I was just one of the caregivers for her. I am not sure who was caring for who here ?
Always in my heart and prayers.

Our deepest condolence to the Basinsky family. I met Madeline in the mid 90's when our daughter joined Rebecca Crimmins dance studio. I was immediately drawn to Madeline who was sitting at the desk. She was always so warm and friendly. Years later when we joined the St Kieran family, I recognized her and felt as if she was an old friend. She has felt like family ever since. I don't think there will ever be another reader' that can portray Mary with as much love and emotion as Madeline did each year during Holy Week. I'm so thankful I was blessed to know her and Joe. A beautiful couple... they both will be missed. Our prayers are with all of you in your time of sadness. Let your memories be the pillows' that bring you comfort now. God bless you

To Madeleine, my great golfing partner,
Thank you for all the fun & memories we shared together. Now, instead of literally hugging you, I'll be hugging you with prayers. Til we meet again, Mar

So sorry for your loss. May your hearts find comfort in the words found at
1 Thessalonians 4:14. A wonderful hope of seeing your loved ones again.
