Madison Paige Crim, 27, of Festus died March 23, 2026, at her home. Mrs. Crim loved to read and play board games with her kids. She enjoyed spending time in the kitchen, baking and making fun desserts, especially with her “little helpers” licking the mixing beaters. She preferred spending her time outside, in the water, birdwatching during the day and stargazing at night, naming constellations from time to time.
