THOMAS ANDREW MADDEN
Devoted and loving husband to Pamela Wall Madden for 47 years. Extremely proud father of Maura Madden (Rufus Tureen) and T. Andrew Madden, Jr. (Emmy Spahr Madden) and adoring grandfather to three grandsons: Theo Tureen, Hunter Madden and Gavin Madden. He is also survived by his brothers: Edward J Madden (DE), John J Madden (WA) and Paul E Madden (NJ) and his aide of seven years, Fabienne Cajuste.
Born in Philadelphia in 1938, he attended LaSalle University and was a member of their crew team, also crewing for Vesper Boat Club in 1960 and ‘61.
He moved to New York City in the mid 1960s and became a dyed-in-the-wool New Yorker.
He worked in the textile industry for his most of his career and then went on to fiber waste recycling, creating many inventive ways to process plastics.
He loved life and sports. He loved his farm in Bucks County, PA, where he hosted many picnics and camp outs, and went hunting with his brothers and his son. He loved comedy and music, and enjoyed seeing jazz as a young man in Philadelphia and throughout his life in New York. And he cherished being a husband, a father, a father-in-law and a grandfather.
He will be remembered for his sense of humor, his great smile, his style and his generosity.
He died after a 14 year battle with Parkinson’s Disease. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to The Parkinson’s Foundation: http://www3.parkinson.org/goto/TomMadden

Jacqueline (Niego) Turner of Manhattan, New York, passed away peacefully on January 27, 2026, at the age of 88. Born on March 4, 1937, in the Bronx, she was the beloved daughter of Olga and Joseph Niego. A proud New Yorker through and through, Jacqueline built a life defined by devotion—to her family, her faith, and her work. After graduating from Cathedral High School in New York City, she spent over three decades serving the United States Government with dedication and professionalism before continuing her career in the private sector with more than two decades at Bristol Myers Squibb. Her strong work ethic and commitment to excellence earned her the respect of colleagues across the years. In 1994, Jacqueline married Nicholas Turner, with whom she shared a deep faith and a love of dancing until his passing. Together, they made their home in Manhattan, where Jacqueline lived for the remainder of her life. Jacqueline was a lifelong and active member of the Catholic Church, serving faithfully as a lector for many decades. Her voice, presence, and reverence were well known and cherished within her parish community. Outside of work and church, Jacqueline was an avid New York Yankees fan, and she found great joy in ballroom dancing— a passion that brought her friendship and movement. Jacqueline is survived by her loving sister, Maureen Selskis, and by her many nieces and nephews: Joseph Niego, Michael Niego, James Niego, Kathleen Lawson, Patrick Callahan, Jeanne Confehr, Jacqueline Selskis, Mary Carney, and Albert Selskis. She was a devoted and cherished aunt, great-aunt, and great-great-aunt, and she leaves behind many great-nieces and great-nephews and great-great-nieces and great-great-nephews who will forever hold her memory close. She is preceded in death by her siblings Joseph Niego, Nora Niego and Victoria Callahan, whom she loved dearly. Jacqueline will be remembered as a devoted wife, daughter, sister, aunt, great-aunt, and great-great-aunt; a woman of faith; a loyal friend; and a true New Yorker who will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
