Madeline S. "Maggie" Holland was the beloved wife of Arthur T. Holland; beloved mother of Tom, Doug and Stuart (Jessica Sprague-Holland); cherished grandmother of Emilie, Cayleigh, Daggert, Sydney, Tyler, Tori, Cooper and Shauna.
Born on April 23, 1945, to Veronica (nee Sadowski) and Frank Drozek in Chicago, IL, Madeline passed away at home on Friday, July 11, 2025. She was 80 years old.
Madeline lived with love, strength and selflessness. She gave everything to her family especially her eight grandchildren, always putting others before herself. The simplest gifts brought her joy, and her warm spirit made every moment special. She faced life with perseverance and grace, never giving up. Though deeply missed she's finally at peace and we love her with all our hearts.
