Jeffrey Edward Madore, 56

Jeffrey Edward Madore, 56, of Saratoga Springs, New York, passed away peacefully, leaving behind a legacy of kindness, creativity, and a generous spirit that touched all who knew him.

Born on September 5, 1969, in Tupper Lake to Donna Jane and Edgar Madore Jr., Jeff grew up known for the care and pride he put into everything he touched. After high school, he built a successful business and became especially admired for his remarkable talent in decorating homes for the holidays—especially Christmas, his favorite season. His displays brought joy to countless families and reflected his meticulous eye for beauty.

Jeff found great comfort in the companionship of his dog, Charlie, whose presence filled his life with laughter and devotion. He also carried a deep and lasting love for his mother, Donna Jane, who passed away in 1994 with him by her side. Their memories remained a source of strength throughout his life.

Jeff is survived by his brothers, Gary (Treva) and their sons Garrett and Hunter; and Robert and his children Honna, Gage, Brock, and great-niece Adelia. He is also survived by many aunts, uncles, and cousins.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Donna Jane and Edgar Madore Jr.; by his Aunt Lynda Levesque; grandparents Ona and Louis Gillis; Uncle Marvin Madore; Aunts Tammy and Reta Madore; and grandparents Alice and Edgar Madore Sr.

Jeff will be remembered for his warm heart, his generosity, his love of the holidays, and the joy he brought to others through his thoughtful work. His smile and presence will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
