Madelyn's Corner
It's hard to talk about Holiday Island without mentioning our matriarch Madelyn (Grandma or Mom to us) and the light she shared with us all. Madelyn had a tough start in life, being a part of large family of siblings, to an orphan and growing up on a farm. The stories she shared with me growing up were always filled with happiness and love for others, to the right is her book she wrote of short stories about the island and her family along with a youtube video of gathered photos I encourage you to check out.
UPDATE 1/2023 Madelyn's Book "We came to Little Calumet" is coming soon to life on YouTube .
