I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your mom. She was an amazing lady and lived a full life! I wish there were words to say or things to do to lessen your pain.
You and your family have been in my thoughts & prayers.

My sincere Sympathy to Maddy's family. I got to know Maddy when she lived at O'Brien court. I had the pleasure of doing Maddy's hair every week. We so enjoyed visiting together. She will forever have a impact on my heart and life. She had so much courage and strength given all her pain and health issues . I admired her so much and she made life fun. Sympathy to you all.

Dear Maddy put up one heck of a fight for the last few years. Now is her time to rest and be pain free. Love to her family.

Maddy was…Maddy! I rather doubt if there is a duplicate anywhere. Her infectious laugh that came from the depths of her soul was always ready to explode. Her care and concern for the ‘older’ generation she fought for is a lasting legacy. Her love of family was evident and the friends she made throughout her life were always close to her heart. She was an amazing woman. Eternal rest grant unto her O Lord and let Perpetual Light shine upon her. May she rest in peace. Amen.

Sorry about the loss guys. She was someone truly special and I will definitely miss her. My thoughts go with everyone. She was always a major presence in the best possible way for the Kuhlman Family Christmas events every year we had them. In fondest remembrance Maddy thanks for everything. Nathan

Maddy has touched so many lives and made such a difference to SW MN. I knew Maddy for years as our Dads worked together for Central Telephone Company. She never missed an opportunity to say hello and to inquire about events of the day or share stories of growing up. One cannot think of her without hearing her laughter. To her family - hold the good memories close, treasure each moment you shared with her. She was a special person indeed and will be missed. But heaven has indeed gained a angel with her passing.

My sincere condolences to family and friends. May you find comfort in your loving memories, and in God's promise to soon "swallow up death forever" and "wipe away the tears from all faces." (Isaiah 25;8) Rev 21:4 “And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” With deepest sympathy and heartfelt prayers.

Tho I never knew this awesome lady I heard plenty from Ann how wonderful she has been for many many years.
Should we all be so lucky to have had another mother like this one? Her kids sure were. Now God has her plans all ready for her next life. And I am sure, she will continue being a servant to the Lord, filling in where she is needed.
Blessings to her memory, A family friend of Ann, Mike Alex and Adam..... Joyce Nokleby

Neil, Wendy and girls and Maddys other family members. Your mom was an awesome boss and an even more awesome advocate for Seniors in SW Minnesota. I am so thankful that Maddy believed in me and gave me a chance in aging. It has become a passion of mine but only because Maddy taught her employees how to have that passion for seniors. She was always positive even in her failing health. It speaks mountains about her how she handled her illness. There are not many that could be as positive as she was. Relay for life was a passion of maddy's and she made the best chili ever when we used to sell chili dogs at relay. It was only fitting I guess that she makes her exit at relay time.
RIP my friend and thank you ever so much for helping me to be the person I am today. Thanks again for all you have done for SW Minnesota. You left a huge impact on this area. Programs in place today are thanks to you. God speed my friend job well done.
