    ?b?Obituary
    Beverly Ann Madden (n. Brydges)
    December 1, 1938- January 7, 2022?/b?

    It is with immense sorrow that we announce the passing of an incredible wife, mother, sister, Nan and Great-Nan. Beverly Ann Madden (n. Brydges) passed away with dignity and grace at her home on Golden Line Road, Almonte. Predeceased by her beloved husband of 54 years Joseph "Joe" John Madden, and by her son Jeffrey Joseph Madden; survived by her daughter and best friend JoAnn Donaldson (Jack). Cherished Nan to Chris (Jessica) and Jonathan (Anna Laurie), and very special Great Nan to Joseph "Joey" Christopher and Austin Timothy Donaldson, and Breeda Beverly Donaldson.

    Born in Almonte to Orville Charles Brydges of Almonte and Gladys May (n. Lancaster) of Carleton Place, Beverly was the eldest of 10 children. She is survived by siblings Clarence (Marian); Blair (Lynda); Harold (Lucille); Bruce (Willie); Joan Scott (Kevin); Roy (Debbie); Stephen (Mary Ann); Heather Denvir (Basil) and Darrell.

    She was a medical secretary in Almonte for 52 years: to Dr. Rolf Bach for 35 years, until his retirement, to Dr. Cecil Rytwinski and to Dr. Heather Abramenko for 20 years. Her dedication to her profession was outpaced only by her devotion to her family.

    Beverly was proud to be a devoted farmer's wife and worked side by side with Joe to make the Madden homestead "Tara Hill Farm" a successful farm and welcoming place for family and friends alike. First her children and then her grandchildren became part of the many adventures she planned; be it taking the RV on the road, traveling to far off destinations, or enjoying camping just down the highway in the Ottawa Valley. Wherever they went, Bev and Joe could always make fast friends, enjoy good music of all kinds and dance the night away - always sharing the last dance with each other.

    Beverly shared her love of downhill skiing, snowmobiling, boating and water skiing with so many friends and family over the years - snowmobiling with her great-grandsons was undoubtedly one of her happiest moments. She planned extended family gatherings for all occasions; birthdays, anniversaries, retirements, showers, and holidays - and they always featured a game, recitation, or skit making memories and keeping us smiling.

    With her seemingly unending supply of energy, Beverly found time amidst all of the farm, family and work activities to volunteer with St. Paul's Anglican Church. She remained an active member of the Altar Guild until just a couple of years ago, and always made time to share her excellent cooking and baking skills in support of the Harvest Supper, Tourtiere and Bake Sales.

    To know Bev was to know what mattered most in life; family, friends and community. She was so proud of the years spent developing Tara Hill Farm with Joe and creating a home where all were welcomed with open arms and a fantastic meal.

    In keeping with her wishes, cremation has taken place and a private family service will be held at a later date.



    In lieu of flowers, donations to St. Paul's Anglican Church Cemetery Fund are appreciated. office@stpaulsalmonte.ca



    "Be happy, tonight I go with the faith and hope that my loved ones' spirits will all be around me. Live, laugh and love each other, always."

    Beverly married John Joseph "Joe" Madden in 1954 in Almonte, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada. John (son of William JOHN Richard Madden, Jr. and Loretta Marie Hogan) was born in 1928 in Ramsay Township, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada; died on 3 Jun 2010 in Ramsay, Mississippi Mills, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada; was buried on 7 Jun 2010 in St. Paul's Anglican Church Cemetery, Almonte, Mississippi Mills, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada.

    ?b?1947-2023?/b?

    It is with shattered hearts a great man passed away suddenly on Saturday, April 8th, 2023. Born in Almonte, Ontario arriving as the fifth child of ten. Predeceased by his parents Orville and Gladys Brydges. Proudest and cherished Grandpa of Conner (Aili) and Colton. Beloved Husband of Willie for almost 56 years. Cherished Dad of Janet (Mike O'Rourke) and Rob (Mandy). Step-Grandfather to Cayle, Kathleen (Tom) and Jack (Aneta). Kindest brother to the late Beverly Madden (Joe deceased), Clarence (Marion), Blair (Lynda), Harold (Lucille), Joan Scott (Kevin), Roy (Debbie), Stephen (Mary-Ann), Darrell and Heather Denvir (Basil). He will be fondly remembered by many nieces and nephews and deeply missed by so many friends.

    His work life was spent shifting gears driving a big rig for 52 years with his proudest years spent at Esso trucking with his trucking family. After hauling fuel, in his words he had 'the perfect hobby' trucking aggregate, heavy equipment and agriculture which allowed him to see the country and talk to every person he met. His dedication did not go unnoticed whether it be to his family, his friend's or his working life to always get the load there on time. Known to work hard, he played just as hard spending his time during the winter months doing his favorite sport - riding his Yamaha sled! His happiest moments will always be the times he spent with his grandsons Conner and Colton, his kids Janet and Rob and travelling the world with his wife Willie. Always genuinely taking the time to chat with those he knew and met ? with a story to tell or a question to ask.

    Visitation will be held at the Alan R Barker Funeral Home and Chapel, 19 McArthur Avenue, Carleton Place with visitation Thursday, April 13th from 2 - 5 and 6 - 9.
