Shealyn Rae Madsen

Shealyn was born on May 10, 2004 in Corpus Christi, Texas, the daughter of Daryl and Michele (Payne) Madsen. Shealyn attended Luther Jones Elementary, Grant Middle School and Harold T. Branch Academy. She loved school! It was always her hope to continue her education in college.

Shealyn was a lover of art, drawing, video gaming, listening to music and her tabby cat, Sam. She was fabulously funny, compassionate and vivacious. We will always remember her infectious smile, twinkle in her eyes and sweet personality. Her presence in our lives will be sorely missed.

When you think of Shealyn, celebrate the good memories you have of her. Remember that life is fragile and short and should be lived to the fullest.

Shealyn was preceded in death by her paternal grandmother, Julia Madsen. She is survived by her parents, Daryl and Michele; her maternal grandparents, Leo and Kiona Payne of Odessa, Texas; maternal grandmother, Linda Clanton (Meme) of Corpus Christi, Texas; and paternal grandparents, Dwayne and Susan Madsen of Aurora, Nebraska. She is also lovingly survived by numerous aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, and cousins. Her sweet smile, kind heart, and loving spirit will be greatly missed by all who knew her.

A celebration of life for Shealyn will be held Saturday, April 15, 2023 from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM at Memory Gardens Funeral Home, 8200 Old Brownsville Road, Corpus Christi, Texas 78415. The family requests that everyone wear bright colors.
