Positive on Life

This is an annual event that is done by the Madden's Montego Bay branch in memory of the late Leslie Madden Senior. Every September, an educational grant is given to children in need who excel despite their circumstances.

In Memory of Leslie Madden Senior

Leslie Ferdinand Madden founded Madden's Funeral Home with a simple belief: that every person deserves dignity in death, regardless of their financial circumstances. This same spirit of compassion and community service lives on through the Foundation that bears his name.

By supporting the education of Jamaica's youth, we honor his memory and continue his legacy of service to the community.
