Richard Bodwell Madden Jr.

Tuftonboro-Richard Bodwell Madden Jr., 68 of Lamprey Lane Tuftonboro, passed away December 9, 2019 at his home.   Rick was born in Newton, MA April 27, 1951 son of the late Richard Bodwell Madden and Frances Louise (Murphy) Madden. He grew up in Needham, MA and spent many years working in Boston and spending summers in Tuftonboro before he made Lamprey Lane his permanent home.   If you were a friend of Ricky’s, you were a friend for life. He cherished his time with old friends and his family. He always stayed in touch no matter how far the distance. Ricky’s heart was larger than life and he wouldn’t hesitate to share the shirt off his back or his last penny to a friend in need. He led a proud and simple life and was blessed with a contagious laugh, one that will always echo in the hearts of his family.      Pre-deceased by his father, mother and his sister Judy Madden he leaves 4 brothers, Steven (&Amy) Madden of Wolfeboro, Mark (& Marianna) Madden of Port Charlotte, FL, Russell (& Kristen) Madden of Tuftonboro, Douglas Madden of Tuftonboro, 3 sisters Marsha Hansen of North Conway, Peggy (& Gene) Spencer of Tuftonboro, Jennifer Morrill of Wolfeboro. Ricky also leaves several nieces and nephews who meant more to him than they know, as well as many close cousins and forever friends.   Since Rick was a lover of the outdoors, a graveside service will be at Townhouse Cemetery in the spring.   The Baker-Gagne Funeral Homes and Cremation Service of West Ossipee is assisting the family with the arrangements.
