Please accept  our deepest sympathies and heartfelt condolences. May her soul rest in peace. Love from Pathma acca & Siva anna

My first school in the Irvington District was Grove Street back in 2009.  Madeline was a friend when a friend was needed.  We often talked about our children, and I know how much she loved hers, and how proud they made her.  Madeline was an absolutely wonderful person, and the rest of us will have to do better, give more, and be kinder to make up for her loss. God bless her family in this time.

Madeline was a bright light at Grove Street School, always smiling, always willing to drop what she was doing to help you with anything you needed, even things outside of her job description.  Her warmth put you at ease immediately.
She talked about her family every time we chatted.  They were, above all, the most important thing in her life.  She was proud of her children and knew she was dearly loved by her husband.
May she rest in peace.

Today I said a very sad goodbye to a caring, loving, beautiful lady, my 32 year co- worker, and most of all a very good friend.  Madeline, I will miss our texting back and forth, funny conversations and most of all YOU!  May you Rest In Peace until we meet up again.  Love 💔 you Boriqua, gone but you will never be forgotten, Gracie 🙏🏽🙏🏽

Te recordaremos con mucho amor. Nuestras condolencias a la familia. Dios les de la fortaleza. Los amamos. De parte de la familia Castro Rodríguez 

Her warmth, kindness and love is always felt the second we stepped in their home. 

You always made your home, our home. Moments like this we will cherish forever. 

My Lovely Aunt, Titi Milli 

I struggle deeply to grasp all that has transpired this past week. I find comfort in what you once told me that” life really goes in a full circle” but, you then looked at me and paused; “It is a Big…& Beautiful..circle”

I will continue to appreciate the present moments with my silly cousins as much as I can because who knows what precious memories may come out of them  

I love you, 
Titi Milli, Tio Prince, Alex, and Matty 
With lots of love -  Shannon Poo

Madeline Aunty was truly the most amazing aunt and sister-in-law we could ask for. She was always so supportive and encouraging and her warm heart was always comforting to be around. Coming to America was always our favorite place because she has created such a wonderful home, so full of love. Whenever we visit, she would treat us like her own children or her siblings and we could never repay how generous she was to us. We are so grateful to have spent some time with her this summer. Despite everything, she was always ready to listen and care for us. We will always treasure the small memories that we were lucky enough to have made with her and will miss her with all our hearts. 
Sending all our love and prayers, 
Geetha, Nesan, 'little ones' Jonny and Jessie 

You will be missed always. Such a major person in my life but I know you’ll always look down on our family. We love you. 

With my heart felt condolences to you and your family. With all my ❤️ and prayers 🙏 
Aunty Swara.

My life my everthing...we will be together forever 💛 

We are glad you got to meet Kora Sahalie, we were able to spend some time together with dad and  we were very happy to see you, it was a very special day, a mother's day to remember for always.. we will always remember you ❤️ .. Cousin Yolandita, Kenny and  Kora Sahalie.. Tu tio Nino and Nilsa.

Our home mama and papa's house  at Jessy Place ....I imagine us all there ❤️ together...were we would all just "stop by" .

I was pregnant with meatball here as you always call him.. You always told me that the kids are so lucky to have me that they're always good because they have me and junior as parents, you always gave me advice on how to be a great wife a great woman you have always been a mother to me In addition to my mom. You are so obsessed with our family and it showed every time I spoke to you every time you smiled and said something. You always told me to take care of all my cousins to always stay together to always take care of Robby and Tina I have that trait in me from you.

We love you. Thank you for always telling  me how amazing my boys were and how I did a good job ...I learned from you.  I loved how u would say that me Adriana and Tina were like the Charmed Ones (Our favorite show) 

The house smells like rice beans and chicken cooking. You always loved how loud we were and were PROUD of it and proud of us. You loved hearing us talk over eachother. You LOVED our family growing bigger. You always said "mami deja eso yo lo limpio".  Always up and helping mama in the kitchen always helping us all. Telling me how I was always doing a good job with the boys and I would say "I learned from u" and that I hope my kids turned out like Alex and Matthew. We always had that conversation... 

My sincere condolences to Prince and family.  I worked with Madeline at the Irvington Board of Education back in 1990.

I was one of the Secretaries for the Special Services Department who worked with Madeline.  I am so sorry for your loss.

May God comfort you and your family.

To  Madeline’s Family,

I can’t think of  words to express my sorrow for your loss. Madeline touched so many lives with her warming kindness and compassion. Her beautiful soul was unmatched. Madeline, thank you for leaving the world a better place.  You will forever remain in our hearts. May God bless you.

Words never come easy in times like this. We've never met yet I feel like we have. Your love flowed through the lives that you touched. I've felt your strong, positive energy through your family. Janice and I spoke of you often. We've spoken through her.  Even though your body is no longer here you will continue to live on in the hearts and souls of many. The love your family shares is your legacy.  You're battle here is done.   Rest easy in paradise until you are reunited in God's perfection. 

Thank you Gladys for sharing this picture.    We will miss you.  

I remember when you used to drive me around in Prince’s Fiero.  You told me that when you first met him you thought he was lying that his name was Prince lol. 

Thank you Prince for taking such great care of my beautiful, most deserving cousin. You, Alex and Matt are in my thoughts and prayers. 
Her love and memory will live on for generations to come. ❤️

Thank you Millie for always being so caring and encouraging with me and my kids. 
I will miss you and love you forever, 
Your little cuz

I am sending my deepest condolences to the family. Madeline was one of the kindest and most genuine people that I worked with at Thurgood Marshall School. She went out of her way to help in any way she could and always was part of our prayer group. Family meant everything to her, so now I pray that God hold all of you close to His heart where He can feel your deepest loss and fill you with love and comfort. Carmen 

My deepest and heart felt sympathy goes out to the family of one of the sweetest person I've meet. We work at Thurgood Marshall together and had prayer each morning before starting work. Family know that God is your comforter . Edna Mack. 

I will always be your Jennifer!  Keep looking over us.
God & Family is what you instilled in us all.
Thank you Prince & Millie for teaching us throughout the years what true love is . There are no words to express how much I miss you.
My time with you was God's gift & my heart will ache until I see you again. My Godmother,  husbands  lil sis & our family matriarch.                 I promise you to do my best to make you proud.                                            
To my niece & nephew you are soo loved & our beautiful memories with your mom will help us all carry on together as a family to create new beautiful family moments.  
 Love you, always your Jennifer.
