Empowering Hope & Healing Through Education
Madeline "maddie" lorriemae holt
"It All Started With a Mouse..." - Walt Disney
Madeline or Maddie as most people knew her changed the hearts, minds, and lives of thousands of people from all over the world. She suffered from a terminal genetic disease, Zellweger Syndrome, which caused life altering health complications including advanced liver failure and congestive heart failure. Despite all of the obstacles in her way, little Maddie became a beacon of hope for so many people fighting unthinkable battles. Her ability to always push past the barrier of the possible, made her an incredible teacher and role model.
On October 23, 2020, after fighting for almost eight years, Maddie gained her wings. We designed this page to act as an ongoing memorial to our little girl. A place for memories, photos, videos, and ways that her legacy is continuing to live on. Her passing, while it has been something we have planned for her entire life, came as a financial shock to our family.
Maddie was an amazing advocate and had an immense social media following. Connect with her facebook page for more memories, moments, and ways we are continuing her legacy.

Her passing, while it has been something we have planned for her entire life, came as a financial shock to our family.
Currently, we are in the midst of the COVID19 pandemic and have been reissued strict lockdown protocol, in addition to finalizing all of Maddie's affairs, and in the next couple of months, moving to New Mexico so Meagan can begin her undergraduate program.
This fundraiser is being started to help pay for some of the bills we have accrued, as well as assisting us in putting her celebration of life together.
