Madelene worked at a Famous Barr that was later named Macy's as a makeup artist for 19 years. She met her husband Bob of 70 years while working at a factory in 1950. They enjoyed going to concerts together, listening to music, and traveling to places like Europe, England, Alaska, and many others. Their favorite vacation destinations were Florida and Gulf Shores. Madelene was dearly loved and will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
