I still just can not believe my baby sister is gone. Her face comes into my head a hundred times a day. Sometimes I smile and sometimes I am over come with shear sadness-I think why did God want her so soon and without any warning to all who loved her.I miss her so much. I miss the the completness of having all eight of us as siblings together.It just does not seem real.But yet it is....

I was so saddened to hear of Maddona's passing. We had many fun times together at Mother of Sorrows! Maddona was always the life of the party and she will be truly missed. Theresa Toomey Rusch

I WAS SO SORRY TO READ TOADAY ABOUT MADONNA---MY CONDOLENCES TO ALL--
I REMEMBER HER AS A VERY HAPPY CHILD
AT 70TH WINCHESTER--MARY ( FEELY ) MOLONEY

Madonna, May you rest in peace. I will remember your laugh and smile always.

And so it goes. The world needs all its funny people who could and would laugh at just about anything...with a laugh everyone remembers. Get them laughing up there, Madonna - the Caddigans need a giggle or two. Miss you, cousin.

We have such good memories of Modonna and know she will be missed by all. We will always cherish the great times we had with her.
Offering our deepest condolences to Jimmy and her family during this difficult time.

The unexpected death of a loved one is the most difficult to accept and understand for those left behind. It is, perhaps, the easiest transition to those who are making their journey to God.Try to hold on to that in the coming days and years when there is a hole in your heart and family. My prayers to you.

sorry for your loss she will be missed by so many.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Madonna was my best friend and godmother to my youngest son Jordan who will turn 21 on Sunday Feb. 27th. We will miss her dearly and will never forget all the GREAT times we had especially the Doyle family parties, when we went to pick up her dog Bo (he was the craziest one but she wanted him), the births of the kids, long talks, books, movies, cooking, wallpapering, painting... I could go on and on. The Doyles always made me feel like one of their own.
I had never heard her sound more happy than when she wrote to tell me that she had met the love of her life- Jimmy. She was absoutely gushing. I am so greatful that she had him in her life. What a great guy!
I will cherish her last letter to me which said she loved me and always considered me her best friend and soulmate in friendship. We had some great times and some not so great times but we thought of each other every day. I LOVED HER and will miss her greatly. Even though our paths went seperate ways in recent years we kept in contact through letters and the occasional hours long phone calls. Madonna will always be a hugh part of my life and I will never forgot all the crazy, fun, often serious times we had. She was there with me for the births of Lindsey, Kyle and Jordan and she was the one I could always count on to take me to my chemo treatments. We could cry to each other but we could always make the other feel so much better. I will NEVER forget our friendship and she will always be a hugh part of my life but I know I will meet her again and she will save a special spot for me in heaven. We now have another Angel looking over us. I LOVE YOU MADONNA and I love the Doyle clan....and I know she is back with her mommy and daddy whom she missed and loved so dearly. Love to all -- Sandy

Madonna had this loud infectious laugh that was hard to ignore or fight. When she laughed everyone knew it and would look around giggling and then start laughing themselves. When Madonna was around it was hard to be down in the dumps, she made you happy and laugh uncontrollably. I will miss you Madonna, but the one thing I can say is I am glad m kids can say they met their GREAT Aunt Madonna.

my thoughts and prayers are with the entire family in this time of sorrow. sharri (fritsch)easley

Deep sympathies to all of Madonna's family. She will be deeply missed.

I still can't believe she's gone,seeing her smiling face brings back so many wonderful memories of years of laughter, fun,and sharing with one another. My cousins have been like sisters to me through my life, I will miss her smiling face so much!My cousins we are all like sisters to me! Such a loss for everyone, especially her family. I am praying for all of them, my heart breaks for them. Madonna was so loved by all of us!

Our deepest sympathies to my brother Jim and Madonna's family. She was a great person and will be missed very much. You are all in our prayers.

We did not know Madonna, just of her, through her mother in law, Charlotte Nichols, who we saw the very day before Madonna joined the angels. Shock adds to grief. We lost a son at 39 years of age. We know your pain. Knowing that she passed from life to life everlasting will sustain us all. With sincere sympathy,

Any memory of Madonna will always feature that smile. She had a smile that could fill a room, warm a heart and every other cliche that gets tacked onto the kind of smile that endures in any of life's tragedies. I wish I could have seen more of it throughout the years. My deepest condolences to the entire Doyle clan.

When I see her smile, I can hear her laughter. That is how I will remember my dear friend Madonna.
I share in your sorrow and grief, but also in remembering a life so full but all too short. My thoughts and prayers are with her, her family and her friends.
May The Lord bless you and keep you, dear Madonna.

There was no laugh as infectious and sweet as was Madonna's. So sudden to leave us, but knowing she is with all those we loved. My heart goes out to Jim who has lost his soul-mate and all my Doyle cousins for this tragic loss.

I think of you and all the wonderful things that made you you. From the timid cycle on the dryer to loving pickles,olives,jays bq-chips to campaigning to be godmother of my son and being with me when I met Patrick, to watching you give the babies a bath and taking me to see Bruce.Then always being there to lend a hand. You will always be my baby sister and I will hold you in my heart forever. I am so very sad I wil never hear you laugh again. Maggie

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

When is comes to little sisters, what can I say? You were the best! You taught me so many things from how to put make-up on to standing up for myself. You helped keep my secrets, share my happiness and cried with me during the sadness. I will miss you more than I can express. You are one of the original STRIPES. We have lots of memories that will live on through the generations.

Much of my childhood was split between the Fitz's and the Doyles houses. I will always remember the times spent with Madonna. My prayers go out to all of the Doyles.

My thoughts and prayers are with Christine Gillott and family during this difficult time. May her memories always be in your hearts.

The world has really lost a bright light. I will always think of Madonna's smile and laughter - so much fun to be with. My prayers are with the Doyles and their extended family.

When I remember Madonna I remember her infectious laugh and sense of humor. She will be missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Doyle family. Love Ann

As I think of the moments I shared with my cousin I smile and remember her infectious laugh and sense of humor. My thoughts and prayers are with the entire Doyle family - she will be missed. Love Ann

I can't stop crying. The thought of Madonna never being in my life again makes me ache. Her eyes were full of sparkle and her heart was filled with love. She liked everyone. She was unselfish, fun, and had a charisma that made everyone love her. My favorite part about going to dinner with the Doyles was sitting around the table talking with the ladies. Madonna's spot at the table will forever be missed.

Madonna, I'll miss you. Diane

Please accept my deepest condolences; my prayers are with you and your family.

Our deepest sympathy to Madonna's family and the entire Doyle clan. I will miss her, but she will remain in my heart forever. Farewell cousin, we all loved you. Joe Caddigan & family, Houston, TX.

To the Doyle family & Jim Streicher –

May your sweetest memories bring comfort to your profound grief. My favorite memories of Madonna comprise of happy times, so much joy, her beautiful smile and an infectious laugh. You are in my prayers.

Shock and sadness...loss and sorrow...just when we thought the book could be closed, we are reminded that we do not control the heavens.

My heart goes out to the entire Doyle family. I cannot imagine how painful it must be to loose a sister, especially so young and so suddenly,

Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers during this very difficult time.

There are no words now,you are in our hearts we love you.

My sadness is constant. My brain is spinning trying to find a place of comfort and rest. There is none. Madonna your prescence in my life is immeasurable. So many memories, so much laughter, so many tears. I love you my baby sister. Moe

To the Doyle family –

There are no words to adequately express how very sorry I am to hear of Madonna's passing. I know how close you are as a family and how difficult this must be for all of you. I pray that God will shed his Grace on you and Strengthen you thru these coming days.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

I can't think of Madonna without hearing her laugh, I am going to miss her desperately. She was my sister, my friend, and loving, beautiful aunt to my children and grandchildren. I love you Madonna.
