Madeline M. Tell, age 92, passed away on Friday, October 9, 2020. Beloved wife of the late Edward for over 40 wonderful years. Loving mother of Deborah, Gregory (Kathleen) & Laure (Michael Henning). Cherished grandmother of Tamara (Rick), Richard, Quinette (Jeff), Jared & Brandy (Shane) and great grandmother of Wyatt, Ethan, Westin, Avery, Foster & Breanna.
Madeline was member of the Garden Club, National Fenton Glass Society, and the Michigan Depression Glass Society and would often travel for club meetings where she made many lifelong friends. Madeline was a devout Catholic and her faith was very important. Prayer was a huge part of her everyday life.
Madeline was always hardworking and could be found cooking, cleaning or working in the yard. She was such an incredible baker. During the holidays, she'd make an assortment of homemade cookies and famous cheesecakes. Everyone would enjoy special cakes on birthdays. Her cooking showed her true labors of love.
Lastly, she adored her dear miniature schnauzers that had preceded her in death: Poncho, Pepper, Muffin, Willy, Cole & Bella.
She will certainly be missed by all who knew her.
