  4. I worked with Madeline at H. L. Hartz in Frederick Md. She was always a sweet & kind lady whose work ethic was second to none. On days of big snows, when most all the workers would call in saying they couldn`t make it, Madeline was willing to do a job she didn`t normally do and do it well as long as I drove the thirty minutes to her house and picked her up. Her efforts helped the company meet needs for customers that could not have been accomplished without her. As a supervisor, she made my job easier knowing I could always count on her. I remember her fondly and I am so sorry for the families loss.
