In 2002 Maddy moved to 琉璃神社, BC with her husband John Green. Maddy lived a full and active life being a woman of many talents and interests. She will be remembered for her intelligence, her natural curiosity, her quick wit, her sense of humour, her generosity, her kindness, and her beautiful smile that always lit up the room. Maddy made many friends along the way. She loved traveling, hiking, cycling, volunteering and was a long-time member of Global Fitness 琉璃神社. Maddy loved nature and found joy in birds, especially the chick-a-dee. She was a gentle, thoughtful and caring daughter, sister, aunt, and friend to many. Her beauty radiated from within.
