Madison Loretta "Maddy" Todd

Madison "Maddy"
Loretta Todd, 25, of Toc-
coa, Ga., received her
wings and transitioned
into eternal life on Thurs-
day, Oct. 16, 2025.
Maddy was born in De-
morest, Ga., on Aug. 20,
2000, daughter of Charles
Elton Todd and Shannon
Suzanne Burke Todd of
Toccoa, Ga. She was a re-
tail worker having worked
at Pilot and attended Pen-
nington Chapel Church.
Maddy loved the outdoors,
but her favorite place to be
was the beach. She will al-
ways have the sand be-
tween her toes and the
cool ocean breeze on her
beautiful face.
Her smile lit up every
room, she was fun-loving,
and had a heart of gold.
Maddy loved Vince's kids,
Waylon and Bella, as her
own. She will be forever
missed by her family,
friends, and all who had
the chance to experience
her presence. Her legacy
of kindness and compas-
sion will never be forgot-
ten.
In addition to her par-
ents, she is survived by
her brother, Charles Pre-
ston Todd (Ella Marie), of
Fort Mill, S.C.; nephew,
Charles Grayson Todd;
boyfriend, Vincent Keith
Groce; stepchildren, Way-
lon Groce and Isbella Va-
lerie Baulchum; maternal
grandmother, Kathleen
Fabrikant; aunts, Erin
Mendez and Erika Gushu-
lak (Dave); uncle, William
Burke; cousins, Mary,
Grace, Will, Griffin, Owen,
Claire, Katie, and Brooke;
and great-aunt, Bea
Williams.
She was preceded in
death by her maternal
grandfather, Patrick
Burke; and paternal
grandparents, Charlie
Todd and Marie Bailey.
