It is with heavy hearts and profound sadness that we announce the passing of Madge Pearl Elmore, a beloved soul who touched the lives of many. At the age of 71, Madge departed this world on January 12, 2024, leaving behind cherished memories and a legacy of love that will forever resonate in the hearts of family and friends. Madge Pearl Elmore, a resident of Louisville, Kentucky, lived a life filled with love, laughter, and countless moments that shaped the tapestry of her existence. As we reflect on her journey, we celebrate the woman she was a mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, aunt, and friend who left an indelible mark on those fortunate enough to know her.
Born to Luther and Edna Tingle, Madge grew up surrounded by the warmth of family. She shared her formative years with her brothers Joseph, Michael, and Phillip Tingle. These bonds of kinship laid the foundation for the loving and compassionate woman Madge would become. Madge’s journey into motherhood was a defining chapter of her life. Stephanie Stinnett, her beloved daughter, was the recipient of Madge’s unconditional love, guidance, and unwavering support. Together, they created a bond that transcends the earthly realm and remains eternal.
Madge’s love extended to the next generation, as she embraced the role of a nurturing grandmother. Her grandsons, Austin and Jacob Matheis, became the recipients of her affection, wisdom, and the joy that only a grandmother’s heart can bring. In the embrace of her love, they found solace and understanding. Madge’s legacy is further enriched by the presence of great-grandchildren, Violet and Ollie Matheis. These little ones, born from the continuum of Madge’s love, are a testament to the enduring impact she had on her family. The laughter, joy, and warmth they brought to her life will forever be cherished.
Madge shared a special bond with her niece, Brittany Tingle, and nephew, Joseph Tingle. Their relationships were marked by shared moments, laughter, and the unique connections that exist within the tapestry of a family’s history. Madge is survived by her half-brothers, Albert and John Buntain, and nephew Phillip Buntain.
