Our Story

In loving memory of Madison Evans. Be Audacious ♥

Madison was born on June 2, 1999. She was born with a CHD (Congenital Heart Defect). She had her first open heart surgery at 5 days old. She had a second open heart surgery at 2 ½ months old. She had her third open heart surgery at age 4 and she was able to have to have an adult sized valve placed in her heart which allowed her to get through her childhood without another open heart surgery.

Madison loved life and had a magical energy about her. She never let her heart problems define her. It was a constant battle with being on Coumadin since the age of 4 and keeping her blood levels regulated. Too many doctor's visits, blood drawings, CT Scans, monitors, Echo's, EKG's and medicine to even begin to count. Madison made the most out of every day and knew how special her life was and genuinely wanted to spend time with people intentionally.

We knew the day would come when she would need another surgery and that day finally came on October 23, 2020. Madison made it through a very complicated, 12 hour, open heart surgery. She came home and tried so hard to feel better and heal. Complications from an arterial line leaking after surgery ultimately claimed her life and she became Heaven's Angel on November 18th, 2020.

Madison made claims to becoming a Georgia Bulldog at the age of 4 and worked hard to make her dream a reality. She was one semester shy of graduating from UGA with a degree in Early Childhood Education.

To know Madison was to love her! She touched so many lives and continues to touch them even in Heaven

No matter what life throws at you, Keep Smiling!

Madison always had a smile to give and love to share. She was always smiling through the pain and wanted the focus on others and not on her.
