Obituary of Madeleine Robillard

Suddenly on Thursday, July 23, 2020 in her 20th year. Maddy was a young woman of extremes; a soft, kind and gentle heart with a powerful, fierce and stubborn mind. A butterfly and a lion all rolled into an almost 20-year-old beautiful daughter, sister, grand-daughter, niece, cousin and friend. She will be missed but never forgotten by her loving parents, Julia & JB. Cherished sister to Rose and Johnny. Dear granddaughter of Marthe & John Robillard and Donna & Dave Hewstone. She will be missed by everyone whose life she touched with her smile. Maddy never quite understood the word "No", subsequently she could always open your mind to try and see things her way. Maddy had fun and lived in the moment she was a great conversationalist as she was an interesting mix of quirky and kind. Over the past years Maddy's light and energy fought against a smothering internal cloud of depression and substance abuse.
