Madeline Adelaide White
December 19, 1924 — November 28, 2012
Madeline Adelaide White, 87, of Parade Road, Laconia NH, died November 28, 2012 at Catholic Medical Center in Manchester NH, following a period of failing health.
Born in Whitefield, NH on December 19, 1924, she was the daughter of William and Mabel [Lawton] Johnson. Madeline grew up in Whitefield and graduated from Whitefield High School with high honors, class of 1943. In 1949, with her husband Elmer, and their children, she moved to Center Harbor NH, and then to Meredith NH in 1951.
Madeline worked as a secretary at the Mountain View Hotel, and then at the former Mel and Quincy Chair Factory, both in Whitefield. After moving to Meredith, she worked as a spinner at the former Amatex Asbestos Mill, in Meredith, until her retirement in 1969.
For many years, Madeline was a very active member of the Advent Christian Church, currently known as Calvary Bible Church, in Meredith. In 1973, Madeline and her husband moved to Granby, MA to help start a church in that community. They returned to Meredith in 1989. She spent her life giving selflessly to others; showing the love of Christ in everything she did.
Most recently, Madeline was involved with a group of senior ladies who served on the Note Care Ministry Team at the church. Each Tuesday they would get together and send out cards and notes for special occasions.
Madeline loved spending time with family and friends and she was always ready for a game, a visit or a trip somewhere, anywhere.
Madeline is survived by: her husband of sixty-six years, Elmer "Whitie" White of Laconia NH; their six children: Carol Richards-Connor and husband David of Meredith NH, Richard White and wife Sylvia of Leesburg, FL, Robert White and wife Helen of Moultonborough NH, Susan Adams and husband Bob of Meredith NH, Patty Gianunzio and husband Pat of Laconia NH, Alan White and wife Carla of Durant OK; eleven grandchildren; twenty-seven great grandchildren; 2 great, great grandchildren; as well as nieces and nephews.
A memorial service will be held at Calvary Bible Church on St. James St. in Meredith on December 8 at 11:00 a.m. to celebrate Madeline's life.
Madeline was involved in the King's Daughters Ministry at Calvary Bible Church since its inception in the early 1950's. The money raised by this ministry provides for many missionaries and supports mission projects. Those wishing, may make memorial contributions in Madeline's name, to King's Daughters, PO Box 1, Meredith NH 03253.
