Tribute
Maddison Rose Draper-Earl
In the arms of her Grandpa, it is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Maddison Rose , surrounded by her family: Mum – Hannah Draper, Dad – Brenden Earl and partner Alicia Bardarson, Grandparents – John and Amanda Hegglund, Aunty Olivia and special friend Elyse Bellvau at Canuck Place Children’s Hospice, Vancouver, BC. Maddi was a joyous gift given to us on October 29, 2008 and peacefully left us June 23, 2012, after a long, courageous battle with a rare liver cancer.
Maddi was an old soul, whose strength and kind, loving nature touched many lives from “…here to the moon and back”. Maddi preferred dancing to walking and could often be found “shaking it” anywhere there was music. “How was your day?” was often her first question as her thoughts and concerns were always with others. Her love of Crofton beach and parks always brought a smile to her face. Her sweet tooth was always with her. Through Maddi’s strength, determination and resilience, she taught us all to cherish each moment as each day is a gift that should never be taken for granted.
The family invites you to attend a celebration of Maddison’s life on July 7, 2012 at 1:00pm at the Christian Reformed Church, 930 Trunk Road, Duncan, BC. In true Maddison style, you are welcome to join the family at 4:30pm at the Crofton Fire Hall, 1681 Robert Street, Crofton, BC, to release balloons to “Remember and to Believe…for all the Days”. Maddison’s dress code is bright, fun colours.
We would like to say a special Thank you to the amazing staff at Canuck Place and the staff of BC Children’s Hospital. To our community, family and friends we could not have done this without you. Many of you have helped us to brighten the worst of days.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Maddison’s honour to Canuck Place, Vancouver, BC, at www.canuckplace.org or by cheque made payable to Canuck Place and mailed to 1690 Matthews Ave, Vancouver, BC, V6J 2T2.
