I met Madeline through her clients Susan and Eileen.  They referred me to her to manage my adolescent daughter's nightshade allergy.  Madeline went on to treat my family for almost 19 years after that first meeting.  One of these treatments truly saved my life.  It made me aware of colon issues that were in need of immediate medical attention.  

Bless her always!

I have a pretty busy practice of almost 13 years of HK and there is no doubt about it that I owe her a debt of gratitude for her help in learning the healing arts. She taught me so much, but I think the thing that amazed me the most about her was her keen, savvy understanding of people. There is first the knowledge one must know to heal, and then there is the application. And, by the fact that there were thousands of people whose lives she touched and helped with what she did (and that they kept coming back), we know she did that job well. I learned HK 1-8 by her (2009), as well as Polarity.

Then there were things that somehow eluded understanding. My first memory of walking into the class by HK 1, was that, even before she asked me my name, she cried out, “What happened to your heart!” I was stunned as a little more than 10 years before I had had open heart surgery. Yet I was young. How could she know? Apparently, it left its energy imprint and needed to be addressed. Everyone in the class she treated like family; even some of the classes were in her home. To this day, I still keep up with some of the classmates even though with time and space I didn’t keep up so much with Madeline. I really feel proud to have been a protégé of hers. She taught me the knowledge, but also the art of being a practitioner. 

My father was admitted to the hospital this past week near his home in upstate New York and my stepmother is keeping me informed by phone. Our conversations are a gift filled with a sense of peacefulness in light of what is happening to Dad.

Madeline recalled that the anniversary of her mother’s funeral was the same day Dad was transported to the hospital. The hymn Softly and Tenderly, Jesus is Calling had been playing in her head all day long just as it was the day her mother was laid to rest. “Come home, come home, ye that are weary come home . . . “

Madeline is a kinesiologist by profession, a healer whose hands have literally touched thousands of lives since she began her practice. “We all touch lives,” she reminded me. “It’s amazing the good that can come of that.”

While Dad was being cared for in the hospital, Madeline was at work caring for others. “I had two little boys who needed me today,” she told me. “I couldn’t leave them.

Softly and tenderly Jesus was calling Madeline, too . . . 

Blue skies smilin at me

Nothin but blue skies do I see

Bluebirds singin a song

Nothin buy blue skies from now on

I never saw the sun shinin so bright

Never saw things goin so right

Noticing the days hurrying by

When you're  in love, my how they fly

Blue days, all of them gone

Nothin but blue skies from now on

was the song we sang every morning on the way to the office.  We met in l996 and I was her shadow from that time on.  Madeline was my mentor, my healer, my  friend.  She was kind, compassionate, hard working, perceptive, intelligent, patient, generous and  her laughter  touched so many.  My only regret is that I did not get a chance to say goodbye.  I will keep with me the memories of the good times we shared. We were affectionately nicknamed  by some as "Thelma & Louise" as we rode around in her convertible with the top down.  We were only stopped once.  She was such a good person with so much to give.  It was a privilege and blessing to have known her.  I will always miss her and she remain forever in my heart.  A tree has been planted as a memorial honoring her and she is perpetually enrolled by the Franciscan Friars .

Madeline came into my life when my late husband, John, first started to show signs of Parkinson's.  She was wonderful to both of us.  Madeline didn't just treat symptoms.  She got to know us and used  her own experiences and life lessons as well as HK to help.  She had been through so much and understood how we were feeling.  We looked forward to our visits and she became more like a friend.  Madeline was  comforting, helpful,  caring and taught us much.  

I remember the first time I came for HK myself.  Madeline, Carolyn and Angelina were all lined up in the treatment room waiting for me.  It was one of the rare times when no one else was in the office.  Madeline was so happy I finally decided to try it.  Thanks to Madeline HK became a part of my life.  I will miss her.

It is with great sadness that we hear that Madeline is not with us any more.  We remember her kindness and compassion, her generosity and laughter, and this verse from the Bible that she loved so much:  “Be still and know that I am God”. 

We thank God for her loving and dedicated life and pray for all those who were close to her, especially her daughter Bonnie that we had the pleasure to know. May God bring to all consolation and peace.

I was 8 years old when I was diagnosed with tourette’s syndrome. I didn’t know much about it at the time and there’s still little known about it in general, but my little head spun the tale that it knew to be true: chronic, incurable, life-altering, the fight of a warrior who didn’t want to be one. I went through many different therapies to try to “fix” it to no avail; the medications used to treat tourettes are off-label and typically not useful. That’s when Madeline came into my life.

From the moment I set foot in that office, I felt calmed. Her mannerisms, huge heart, and sweetness were infectious and lit up the room whenever I was there. I, an 8 year old with a tiny attention span and a very lively brain, began to look forward to that hour period each week where I would literally lay on a table and not move as she did her work. I went for several years and slowly but surely, my life drastically changed. The tics became unnoticeable; I was in good health and better spirits. She was a practitioner no doubt, but she acted and cared as though I was her own.

Madeline, I wish I had gotten the chance to tell you what an impact you made on my life now that I am far enough from the situation to enumerate it, but I get the funny feeling that you knew what you were doing for that terrified child. You were and still are a role model to me. I will never forget you. Rest peacefully.

My condolences to Madeline's family. I first met Madeline after returning from my first trip to India in 1998. A mutual friend connected us because I was having a recurring face acne problem on my chin... well, that was the beginning of what would become one of the most meaningful friendships of my life.  Madeline was my mentor, healer and guiding light, she supported me as I raised three children as a single mom, as my international career grew and matured and even in recent years, visiting me in Florida after my mom passed, and staying in touch and always caring for me through Zoom in most recent years.   

In 2010, when we learned that the UN Climate Change Conference would be in Cancun, Madeline invited me to stay with her and Alex in their home away from home. We had such a wonderful time, and on one evening when I was attending a high level dinner, she dressed me up with a 'red' blue as my power color and insisted that I wear her gold and diamond jewelry to the event to attract abundance!  We were partners in world service and she has most recently encouraged me in my writing and was keen to read the second ECOMASTERS book, which I am finishing these weeks and she reminded me to send one to Carolyn, which   I will do.  I know that Madeline can read the books from her heavenly home, but I am so sorry that she will not be holding the book in her hands.

My dad and Madeline were very close in age (just a few months) and when dad died on 27 January, it was Madeline who helped to put me back together again, as she has done, over and over and over again for almost 25 years.  Honestly, I don't know what I will do without her in my daily life, but I know that she is still with us.  I have chosen to plant trees in Madeline's honor and memory. That is my way. In India, I worked with some on shifting cultural traditions, from returning cremated ashes into the river, Mother Ganga, instead to bury the ashes to feed and nurture a tree.  In her life, Madeline has nurtured so very many of us and always recognized the depth and breadth of each tree in the forest... as her wisdom reaches from here on Earth to her new heavenly home.  

We often laughed about those pimples which turned into a life changing adventure. With so much love, Donna
