Westfield – Madelynn Marie Priestley was born on December 26, 2016. Maddie became our guardian angel on February 20, 2017 and earned her angel wings. She has left footprints on our hearts due to SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.) In just the two months time, Maddie always put smiles on our faces and filled our days with so much joy. She could light up the sky on a gloomy day. She always loved to sit in her swing and watch her mobile go around and loved to be held and enjoyed being talked to, especially by her sisters. If you ask her to tell you a story, she would smile big and laugh. Maddie always had the greatest of smiles from the time she woke to the time she went to sleep… a smile that you could never forget. She may not be able to be here with us now but she will always be watching over us. Madelynn will forever be loved and remembered by many friends and family and the hearts that she has touched. She has forever left footprints on our hearts.
Our dearest Miss Maddie leaves behind her father Benjamin Priestley Jr., her mother Danielle Raskauskas Pierce, along with two sisters: Makayla Pierce, Ava Hawley, and one brother Jonathan Smith. She leaves behind her grandparents Lucretia Raskauskas Jesse Pierce, Greg Allen, Bridget Lau, her uncle Steven Raskauskas, aunts Shelby Bessette, Jane Allen, Jodie Savage and Paula Holmes as well as her cousins Shane Bodendorf and Gavin Raskauskas. Madeline leaves behind many friends and family that will miss her more than words can express.
She will forever be in our thoughts, memories and prayers and most of all our hearts.
