Madonna was a beautiful, caring, hard-working woman who was instrumental in the care of her grandchildren over the years. She knew a lot of people from her many years of owning her convenience store and serving on various local committees. She enjoyed the simple things in life especially trouting, berry picking, playing cards and spending time at their trailer on Cape Pond Road. She will be forever remembered and loved.

“May the winds of Heaven blow softly
and whisper in your ear,
how much we love you and miss you
and wish that you were here”.
