Madeline Grace Hoover

Madeline Grace “Sissy” Hoover (Mudd), age 64 passed away peacefully on April 7, 2025, in Mims Florida. Born on April 17, 1960, in Washington, D.C., she brought warmth and joy to those around her throughout her life.

Madeline was the beloved daughter of Madeline Ann Mudd and the late James Lee Mudd Sr. She was preceded in death by her husband, David Roy Hoover, and her brother John Paul Mudd. Her memory lives on through a large and loving family that includes her mother; brothers James Lee Jr Mudd, James Henry Mudd, William Jarboe Mudd, Steven Craig Mudd, Steven Paul Mudd Sr., Charles Edward Mudd, and Brian Lee Mudd Sr.; nieces Mary Anne Moore, Angel Pirner, Ashley Mudd, Claire Mudd and Elise Mudd; Nephews Steven Paul Mudd Jr., JJ Mudd, Sean Mudd, Brian Lee Mudd Jr. and Michael Mudd.

Madeline had a deep love for animals and found great joy in the companionship of her cherished dogs- Lady, Ralph, Sonny, Pee Wee, and Peanut Butter. Her days were often filled with simple pleasures: shopping excursions, gardening under the sun, traveling to new places, or relaxing at the beach. But above all else she treasured time spent with friends, family, and loved ones. One of Madeline’s most cherished times of year was Christmas. She delighted every aspect of the season- from baking festive treats to giving thoughtful gifts- and especially relished the opportunity to gather with family during the holidays.
