Madeline B. Hubert's Obituary
Madeline “Maddie” Hubert went to be with Jesus on Tuesday, October 1, 2019. She was born on October 25, 1996 in New Orleans, LA, a precious gift to Steven E. Hubert and Julie Smith Hubert.
Maddie was the beloved sister of Katherine Anne Hubert and Emma Louise Hubert. She is survived by her paternal grandparents, L.A. “Skip” Hubert, Jr. and Barbara “Nana” Litchfield Hubert. She is preceded in death by her maternal grandparents, William Adam Smith and Ella “Granny” Madere Smith, who called her “doll baby”. She is also survived by her Aunt Kerry Mullin (Charlie), Aunt Brenda Beasley (Ray), Uncle Tom Hubert (Coleen), and Uncle Doug Smith, her godfather, who helped care for her all these years. She is preceded in death by Uncle Tim Hubert. Maddie will be forever loved and remembered by Karen Rodgers, her godmother, who called her “Maddie Pattie”, numerous great aunts, great uncles, cousins and dear friends, many who endlessly lifted her up in prayer.
Maddie was a member of First Baptist Church of Covington Special Friends Ministry and enjoyed their love and support for many years. Though Maddie faced a multitude of health challenges that separated her from her peers in many ways, she still loved spending time with special friends, Alex, Stephen, Johnathan, Ambrose and Juliana. Maddie taught us about happiness, because she found joy in the simple things. Without speaking a word, she deeply touched the hearts of those who knew her. She loved praise music and would bless us with her smile, her way of saying 'I love you'. She was an inspiration to all.
The family would like to especially thank her loving care friends, “Mama” Lila, Gayle, Jenny, Linda and Sandy, PT’s Darra and Barbara, Home School teacher Mr. Ron and many other nurses, aides, teachers and therapists that helped Maddie through the years. We cannot thank you enough for your kindness, patience and never ending love you have given our sweet angel!
