Our beautiful little angel, Madeline Renee Reimer, made her debut, along with her twin brother, Luke, into this world on June 6th, 2005. We had her sweet presence for almost 8 weeks. The memory of Madeline will be forever ingrained in our minds and our hearts. Our precious daughter, who is deeply missed, gently took an angel's hand and was guided home on July 22nd, 2005. 

Madeline passed away from an equal opportunity destroyer bacteria called MRSA. It took her life before she ever even had a chance to live. This superbug is something that is becoming an epidemic, one that before Madeline I had never even heard of. Please visit Madeline’s memorial site and read more about Madeline under her Legacy. Her time on earth was much too brief, but her memory will forever live on. 

Madeline's 1st Angel Day was July 22nd, 2006. We gathered our loved ones and had a time of remembrance. During this day we shed tears and shared precious moments. We reflected on her short, yet so meaningful life. I as her mother i feel so blessed to of had the time i did with her, and i am forever changed because of her. As her Angel Date became closer i felt my heart ache and it was so hard to think it had been a year since i held that precious baby. 

This Angel Day was day of honoring our Miss Maddy. We held an intimate candle lighting ceremony. Each candle had a small picture of Maddy, as well as a word to describe her, such as sweet pea or princess. Our loved ones all came up and lit a candle and signed a picture of her. Our 15 year old Zachary read a beautiful poem and then we had a butterfly release. We are so thannkful our loved ones were here to help support us as we remembered Miss Maddy.
