Madeline Maines

Madeline was a beautiful soul. She lived with me twice during my 20s and we had alot of great times together. She was so smart. She genuinely cared about her closest friends and anyone she met. I as well used to receive postcards and nick nacks in the mail from her that she had made for me on my birthday or any other holidays. I still have all of them. I kept them because they meant alot to me and were very creative. She taught me alot. When her father died she told me the news and immediately asked me how my father was doing to which I replied "Great." I gave my condolences for her loss and she said "Talk to your father everyday." I could see the pain she was going through. Since that day I speak to my father nearly everyday. I make time for my family even though I am very busy at this stage in my life. We lost touch as people do. I wish I could tell her one last time how much she meant to me. Fly high beautiful, sweet, creative angel.

Madeline was about as kind and genuine as they come. She touched the lives of many while we were lucky enough to have her, and she will be missed and remembered.

Madeline was a unique and sweet child. She attended school with my daughter Bree and I got to know her Mom at Marshall Middle School. My heart goes out to Nancy and the family at this unimaginably painful time of loss.

Madeline, if I only had one more day with your sweet face I'd tell you again how much I love you. You were a light that had no problem shining!! Your face lit up any room you walked in. Gonna miss your funny talks, smile, laugh, and just being around you. I will love and miss you and will be celebrating your birthday every yr, with my brother's. I will think of you everyday. U til we meet again sweet girl---- Love you always. Rest easy now angel

Rest in peace, Madeline.

Madeline was the sweetest, most thoughtful person that I have ever met. One day, she called me because she had seen my uncles obituary. She recognized my moms maiden name and wanted to make sure I was doing okay. It meant so much to me. She would send me packages in the mail full of random things that she thought I would enjoy. I'm going to miss her so much.

Madeline was a beautiful soul who brightened the life of most that crossed her path. She taught me a lot about growing up and having empathy. I'll cherish the memories and experiences I had with her forever.
