Madeleine R. Klein
August 30, 1941 — December 22, 2019
Madeleine Klein, age 78, of Garnett, Kansas passed away peacefully, surrounded by her family on Sunday, December 22, 2019, at the St. Luke’s Hospice House, Kansas City, Missouri.
Madeleine Rose Glenn was born on August 30, 1941, in Kansas City, Kansas. Madeleine was the second of three daughters born to Eugene and Margaret (Martinac) Glenn. She grew up in the Strawberry Hill neighborhood of Kansas City, Kansas, graduating from Washington High School with the class of 1959. In January 1961, Madeleine was united in marriage to Jerome A. Klein at St. Patrick’s Catholic Church, Kansas City, Kansas. Their union was blessed with four children. Madeleine and Jerry made their home in Wyandotte County near Kansas City, Kansas, later moving to Piper where they lived for many years. Madeleine was able to be home with her children while they were young while she also worked as a freelance artist and sculptor. Years after her divorce, Madeleine moved to Garnett, in 1999. This afforded her the opportunity to spend countless hours with her grandchildren. Madeleine’s Christian faith was the cornerstone of her daily life. She loved sharing the word of God with her family and all the lives she touched. She will be fondly remembered for her loving and selfless nature, giving more of herself than she ever expected in return.
Madeleine was preceded in death by her parents and one brother-in-law, Robert McBratney.
She is survived by her children, Kimberlee Sims and husband, Jerry of Kansas City, Kansas, Eric Klein and wife, Rhonda of Garnett, Kurt Klein and wife, Cara of Garnett, and Eileen Burns and husband, Mike of Garnett; eight granddaughters, Jamie Greenlee, Lindsay Sims, Chelsii Fountain, Chelsea Doherty, Remi, Cami and Olivia Burns, Lyssa Henderson; thirteen great-grandchildren; two sisters, Sharon McAmis and husband, Dean of Topeka, Kansas and Rose McBratney of Leawood, Kansas; and one niece and nephew.
Memorial services for Madeleine will be held at 10:30 AM, Saturday, December 28, 2019 at the First Christian Church, Garnett. The family will greet friends following the service. Memorial contributions may be made to WINGS and left in the care of the funeral home. Condolences may be left at www.feuerbornfuneral.com .
