radiant.\u00a0\u00a0 She was a well-rounded young lady with a bubbly personality:\u00a0 a talented athlete who also had a penchant for writing poetry.\u00a0 She was an excellent shortstop and an integral part of the Briarcrest Christian School Softball team.\u00a0 And even though she had played golf competitively for the first time her junior year, she amazed everyone, except maybe her Dad, when she qualified for state!<\/p>\n<p>Maddie was very close to her family and loved spending time with them.\u00a0 She treasured her roots and loved Iowa where her grandparents on both sides and many extended family members still live.\u00a0 When the family moved to Tennessee, she and her younger brother, Jack, formed an especially strong bond of friendship, counting on each other as they settled into their new lives and learned to make new friends in an unfamiliar environment.\u00a0 But, it didn\u2019t take long for Maddie.\u00a0 She loved her new school and was soon surrounded by tons of friends.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1103 alignright\"

\/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>She was excited about her senior year and had big plans for the future.\u00a0 Though she had barely finished her junior year, Maddie was already set on attending the University of Missouri after high school.<\/p>\n<p>As the start of the summer began, she joined a group of friends on a beach trip to celebrate one of their 18th birthdays.\u00a0 The birthday girl\u2019s grandmother had volunteered to chauffer the foursome.\u00a0 They left at about 6am on Sunday, May 31, 2015.\u00a0 Maddie, sitting in the back row of the mini-van they were driving, had dozed off, getting comfortable for the long drive ahead of them.\u00a0 But they had only been on the road about 30 minutes when a repeat offender with five DUI convictions rear-ended them, flipping the van, and sending it crashing into a utility pole.\u00a0 He was out on bond for a sixth DUI arrest and blew a .14 after the crash which made this his 7th DUI.<\/p>\n<p>Maddie was killed, along with <a class=\"text-red\" href=\"https:\/\/madd.org\/tennessee\/why-were-here-rachel-lynch\/\">Rachel Lynch<\/a> who was also seated in the back row.\u00a0 Kara Holden suffered a broken collarbone and broken ribs.\u00a0 Caroline Kam, the birthday girl, and her grandmother, Roxanne Anderson, sustained minor physical injuries, but would bear emotional scars for a lifetime.\u00a0 The crash changed the entire landscape of Briarcrest Christian School and shattered the lives of multiple families.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1106 alignleft\"

that on the morning of the crash, \u201cWe thought we were going to pick Maddie up from the hospital\u2026 we had no clue what we were going to experience.\u00a0 We had our precious Maddie senselessly taken from us and we had no clue what to do.\u201d\u00a0 Her mother, Dawn, said, \u201cI don\u2019t get to see her fall in love and that breaks my heart.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Friends, family, and an entire community were impacted by the tragic loss of such beautiful lives taken so needlessly.\u00a0 In honor of Maddie, Briarcrest dedicated the softball field to her and retired her #4 jersey.\u00a0 (Her brother, Jack, will now always proudly wear the #4 on his football and baseball jerseys, in honor of his sister.)\u00a0 The school also erected a monument to both Maddie and Rachel, quoting Psalms 16:11.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1105 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/madd.org\/tennessee\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/66\/2016\/06\/IMG_5223-300x200-1.jpg\"

allowed their daughters\u2019 killer to continuously be charged with 1st time DUI offenses as he repeatedly drove drunk.\u00a0 Had he been flagged as a repeat offender and processed as such; harsher bonds, penalties, and even jail time likely would have prevented him from being on the road that fateful morning.\u00a0 They saw their first success in that fight in\u00a0<a class=\"text-red\"
