This is the eulogy my Aunt Dee worte to show at the funeral
Everyone, I'd like to express my entire family's heartfelt appreciation. Thank you soo very much.. friends, colleagues and acquaintances "for coming". For your unfathomable outpouring of loving and sharing of your own painful experiences, with us...trying to ease our pain.
Each of you are loved ones, to us now. Because of, it's given us strength and the ability to furnish the kind of goodbye which was appropriate for our social butterfly since a young age, all of ours- Maddy. Who would have greatly enjoyed and cherished you're coming here today and caring for her and for us,,who she loved soo very much.
Madelynne Patterson,
Goodness gracious I could not believe, I struggled with what I could say about you today...because I can't see straight filled with this grief. We haven't slept for days. Our hearts are as smashed as they could be, without dying. A fractured family with a hole. Mom and dad here, no amount of money, medicine, medical professionals, prayer, desperate trying & love can now ever repair. Couldn't fix this Maddy, sorry..wasn't with you Honey, sorry. Can't retract any indescribable "fear" "or pain" you may have withstood without us.
My beautiful Maddy with the even more beautiful interior.. don't know how, knowing and experiencing what it means to have had you in one's life,,are we ever going to go on living without you physically present. Popping into any room we're in ..and brightening it, even if with your moodiness. Full of surprises since the day you were born.
But I knew I couldn't possibly take the easy road out. On account, she absolutely, soo dramatically, truthfully touched so so many lives.
Those of you who know me are now laughing silently to yourself about just the thought of my being at a loss for words, and probably sentiment, for that matter. Let alone for my personal angel Maddy here, who I loved soo intensely and was soo incredibly close to..and she to me. If you knew me you beheld first hand the joy she brought me. If you knew her you thought I was the amazing Mother Theresa. God love her for loving me and her beloved family and friends and anyone at all for that matter,,in passing, soo very very well.
And loving was truly her calling in life. It was "our" repeated little lessons learned. She taught us how someone can care soo much. How much we all need it. How much fun it is. How unconditional it can be. How good it makes one feel. How it ripples out to others like the waves of water, a stone's been tossed in, to another. How important it is. What a difference it makes and what an impression as she has it leaves on our souls.
She's given each of us I think more memories in such a short period of time on this earth only 20 years of age she is. Then most of us would be able to furnish another with, had we 90 years in order to do so. Always busy having somewhere to go, something to do, something to feel, someone to care for, 4 phones and only 2 hands, poor kid...packing it all in.
I must have 3000 family photographs and there were only about 3 she didn't have that huge incredible smile in. The one we all know and love about her and she would be remembered for, anywhere she tread...like a beautiful lighting bolt full of sunshine, when she delivered it.
Faces too numerous to mention. With a spectrum of any emotion possible under the sun..
All of you being here like this and all of the coincidences and miracles presenting them self and persons coming to our aide like angels are testament during this tragic time, of what a special child this was.
Hard time coming into this world..as if she didn't want to join us. Makes me think perhaps she liked it better where she was. And now is going back to, too fast, at least for us..She was borrowed is what she was.
Madelynne on Christmas eve donated organs as gifts to help save the lives. One of them being a 14 year old Jersey boy. We know now 4 individuals <& their families> were helped. As she travels between us and certainly.. heaven.

Dearest Maddy,
Without warning,without reason,suddenly you were taken. How can this be,they must have been mistaken. Over and over I question,WHY? I wait...but no reply. What is one to think for such a tragic loss? Anger that is felt,left to be unspoken,as our hearts are truly BROKEN. There is one thing I know for sure. The heavens have an Angel who's BEAUTIFUL and PURE. Had they known then what they know now,they would have kept you here...FOREVERMORE.
Forever in Our Hearts
Dawn,Connie and Samantha

Madelynne...you were so special to my heart and you will always will be. I remember all the good times we had together with Andrea and Nicole. When you would babysit us it was so fun. I loved it when you came over. We always had something to do and you would always make s root-beer floats. Even though you cant read this.. I know your watching over me. I hope you will always remember what I told you on Christmas Eve. Just know this, Uncle Billy and Aunt Dee didnt deserve to lose such a wonderful daughter like you. Billy and Sonny had to be the luckiest brothers in the world to have a sister like you. You'll always have a special place in my heart. Even though your with Bronson,Mom-Mom and Pop-Pop I hope you watch over me. Love you Maddie<3 **Gone, but not forgotten
ever!.
P.S. Rest Easy Madelynne<33
Love you

Hey Maddie! We all miss you so much at the hut, especially me! We had our Christmas party last night and it was so sad not having you there. Renee brought the angel pins for us all to wear in memory of you, so you were there in spirit. Oh, I told the story of when we went for that joy ride during work! That was the best. You always got me to do stuff I never would have done with you there!
Anyhow, I guess you probobly know that I'm back. I know you would have wanted me there with you, I just wish I could have gone back like one day sooner!
I've commented your myspace like a million times I can't help it, I'm just always thinking about you. Anyhow, just know that I love you and I can't wait to see you again! Don't forget about me!
Love,
Cynthia

I am so sorry for the terrible loss in your family. I was a customer at the Pizza hut that she last worked in. I did not know her well, but well enough to know that she was a very special girl. It breaks my heart to know that someone so sweet was taken early by someone elses MISTAKE! I pray that the family will be able to continue to live on and fill Maddie's void with wonderful memories.
God Bless

I was deeply saddened to hear of Maddie\\\'s passing. Many have mentioned her lovely smile and caring personality. I can still visualize Sonny\\\'s younger sister sitting in my fifth grade classroom. She was beautiful even then. Savor your memories of Maddie forever. My prayers are with your family.

Denise and Family, I am so so sorry for your loss, there are no words that I can say that would help in anyway, only prayers that God and Mattie will watch over all of you and give you the strength to go on. I did not know your daughter and sister, however when I read the email sent in work, I cried and said to myself it sounds like Mattie was exactly like her Mom, a loving,happy soul. God has a special place for her!!! I am very sorry, I will not be able to attend the services but I will keep all of you in my prayers. Ask God for help during this trying time he will pull you thru.Denise if there is anything I can do for you don\\\'t hesitate to call me.

I was 2 years ahead of Maddie at Triton. I was never \\\'friends\\\' with her, but I always remember hearing her name followed by \\\"is so sweet.\\\", \\\"is so funny.\\\" \\\"is my friend.\\\" Never a bad word was spoken. Needless to say, when a fellow Bellmawr resident passes, the whole town feels it, and in this case, it extends much further than that. Maddie has surely touched many lives. As hard as it is to think now, try and remember to celebrate her life, although short, but very full. The only saddness that should be felt is the fact that she won\\\'t be able to touch more lives... Heaven is now truely blessed, as many of us have been to have Maddie in our lives....

My heartfelt condolances go out to all of your family. I met Maddy only once but see her all the time on my computer screen, as she was at my grandaughter\\\'s graduation party at my son\\\'s house. She did have a beautiful smile. Her tragic death has affected so many people that you will probably never imagine the impact. I can see it in the faces of my son, grandson and grandaughter. Just know that you will be in our prayers.

Dear Denise and William,
Our family is so sorry for your loss. Madelynne went to school with Brianna, and lived up the street from us, and we just can\\\'t believe this has happened. We can\\\'t possibly know how you feel and I know we can\\\'t really comfort you, but I did want to say that we are very sad by this tradgedy. I haven\\\'t seen Madelynne or your family in many years, but I do have fond memories of her in grade school and enjoyed talking with you when the occasion arose. I can picture her smile. She was always polite to us when we saw her and she will be missed. Again, please accept our condolences.
