Madeline Levaggi Amsler's daughter and granddaughter each wrote to inform us of Madeline's death.  Madeline's daughter Erin said: "I thought you would like to know that Maddie Levaggi (46') passed away October 27th, 1996.  I linked into this web site as my daughter was looking up information about her grandmother's (Maddie's) singing with the Bernie Vance Orchestra in 1948.  We know little about her singing and her 16 yr old grandaughter is doing a personal history report.
 
Anyway she died very suddenly with me ( her youngest daughter, Erin ), but was extremly healthy and active up to minutes before she died. She lived a great life and everyone who knew her loved her.  I would love any info anyone could give me about her life in highschool and her interest in singing.  It seems to run in the genes!   Thanks   Erin Britton
