Thomasina M. “Tommie” Madrigrano, a resident of Kenosha and Las Vegas, NV died following a sudden illness on Friday, January 23, 2015 at Shea Hospital, Scottsdale, AZ.
Thomasina was born on September 4, 1932 in Kenosha; she was the daughter of the late Thomas and Sarah (Maccarone) Montemurro.

She showed them how fortunate they were to have each other, a father who worked hard every day for them and encouraged each of her children to be independent thinkers.
