Not sure what to say?





Madonna - I miss you so much. I am always coming across a document that has your signature or contains handwritten notes by you. I miss you so much, I miss the talks we would have right around this time when everyone else was going home from work. I will miss the cards at the holidays, the small gift exchanges and all of the other wonderful things you shared not only with me but with others. I miss you so much, beautiful lady.

Dear Flynn-Eggert families, I am so sorry to hear of Madonna's passing. I only learned of it today, when my sister Lovie (who grew up with all of Madonna's siblings) told me of her death. I am heartbroken that I could not have been there for you. May God bless you all. She was a terrific girl!

Madonna was always smiling and would always say hello to you in the hallways of GSA. I am so glad to have met her. Will miss this wonderful lady.

I had the honor and privilege to know and work with Madonna over the year's in GSA. A great Lady and always had that beautiful smile for all that knew her. God Bless....

Madonna was absolutely one of my favorite persons to see in the hallways of GSA or to take a quick break with. She always had a kind smile, a sunny disposition, and words of encouragement. May the family find comfort in good memories of times shared.

I am very sorry for the loss of your loved one. "And I have hope toward God, which hope these men also look forward to, that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous."

Rest in Peace with our dear Lord, Madonna. Jim, you have my deepest sympathies on the loss of your wife and partner in life. May our Lord embrace you and comfort your sorrow in the days ahead. Peace be with you. I will always have fond memories of Madonna and will be one of the many that will miss her dearly.

I can't believe you are gone. I am glad you know no pain. My gardenias bloomed the day I heard. I believe it was a sign to let me know you are ok. I loved our talks, sharing memories with you. Sometimes it's the little things that people remember, that mean the most. Like, you doing my hair for my 3rd grade picture; you being at my "recitals"; watching you do your nails/set your hair and most recently having you at the graduation. I will forever be grateful for my career, for which you played a part in me starting Civil Service. I am very grateful I had the chance to tell you I love you one last time but even better was you whispering it to me. Until we meet again...Love, Kimmie

May you rest in peace, Madonna. I will miss your smile and your sense of humor.

Met Madonna in 1972. She was one of my very first friends at GSA. She always knew what to say, always had a smile at the end of a sentence. I am so sad to hear the news of her passing. God speed her to the Pearly Gates. Until we meet again my friend,
