Madeline Carol Rollins (nee Smith) 78, of Milwaukee, WI, passed away peacefully on Saturday, June 15, 2024 surrounded by family and close friends. She was born on October 7, 1945 to Raymond and Wanda “Connie” Smith and was the youngest of 4 siblings.

Madeline was an avid Packer fan and loved to cheer them on but her best moments were spent tending to her garden that she loved so much and spending time with family and friends whenever she could. She enjoyed taking scenic drives through the countryside and listened to a variety of music from Eric Clapton to Ariana Grande. She was a great crafter and spent countless hours (maybe even years) crafting for the favorite kids in her life. 

Madeline supported several charities including St. Jude, The Nature Conservancy, Milwaukee PBS, and the Milwaukee Rescue Mission.

Madeline is survived by her long-time partner, Scott Mulcahy, loving brother Michael, several nieces and nephews, great nieces and nephews, and plenty of loving cousins. 

She was preceded in death by her loving husband Fred Rollins, Raymond Smith (Father), Wanda “Connie” Smith (Mother), Patricia Crocker (Sister), and Ray Smith (Brother). 

Madeline had a great heart. She was one of those people who made life better for every one around. She cared, she gave, and always saw things in others that most people just didn’t see. She will truly be missed by the countless people that she touched in her lifetime. Rest in Peace, Madeline. We will carry you in our memory and our hearts forever… until we meet again. 

In honor of Madeline’s memory, memorial contributions can be made to any of the above charities. 

An informal memorial luncheon will be planned for a later time.
