Madison Mashburn Hennington

Madison Mashburn Hennington age 14 of Douglas passed away Sunday, December 3, 2017 at UAB Children’s Hospital with family at her side. Her passing leaves a void in so many hearts, her smile will be remembered forever by those who knew and loved her. Volleyball was Madison’s favorite sport although she loved to cheer as well. She made the Junior High Cheerleaders but really wanted to try out for the volleyball team. When she tried out and made the Douglas Middle School Volleyball team she came home so excited to be part of this group of girls. Madison loved cheering and volleyball both but had to choose one because of conflicting game schedules and practice times. In the end she chose volleyball and wore the #7 uniform proudly for her team helping win the Marshall County Tournament.
