Madelyn Leigh "Maddy" Lancaster

Maddy went home to be with Jesus on March 3, 2026, passing peacefully at home surrounded by the love of her family. Though doctors once said she would only live to be two years old, her life became a beautiful testimony of God's faithfulness for 23 precious years. Though she was never able to walk or speak, Maddy's light shone brightly and her life touched more hearts than words ever could.
