Arthur, Nicole & Andrea:

Madeline and I had a lot of fun working together for the county. She always made me laugh and we enjoyed our many lunches spent at Carson's eating frozen yogurt. She loved you girls so much and talked about you often. She was so proud of you. I will always remember Madeline and her wonderful sense of humor.
You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Art, Nicole and Andrea,

I remember a girl had called my mom's house on "club night" looking for Madeline. Unfortunately, no one by that name was there. A few calls later and I continued my response "Sorry, no one is here by that name." Everyone asks "Who are they looking for?" I reply, "Madeline." All of a sudden, your mom busts out laughing. Oh yes, Madeline was there. AKA "Curly"

Your mom was a wonderful person and will be missed by all.

My deepest sympathy,
Lisa (Briglio) Fabiani
