March 11th, 2026 marks three years without Madison St. John Olivero with us.
Madison’s spirit lives on because of how deeply he touched so many people’s lives with his kindness, energy, and love for others. Madison would always want people to think of happiness when they thought of him, and this quote perfectly reflects the way he approached life:
“Eat at a local restaurant tonight. Get the cream sauce. Have a cold pint at 4 o’clock in a mostly empty bar. Go somewhere you’ve never been. Listen to someone you think may have nothing in common with you. Order the steak rare. Eat an oyster. Have a Negroni. Have two. Be open to a world where you may not understand or agree with the person next to you, but have a drink with them anyways. Eat slowly. Tip your server. Check in on your friends. Check in on yourself. Enjoy the ride.”
— Anthony Bourdain
Today, keep this mindset in mind. Do something you wouldn’t normally do. Try something new. Be open to the moment and live life to its fullest, because nothing should ever be taken for granted.
Our family feels incredibly blessed for the love and support from our family, friends, and this amazing community. Through the Madison St. John Olivero Memorial Foundation, we look forward to continuing to give in Madison’s name by creating opportunities, scholarships, and meaningful experiences for others.
Madison’s impact continues to live on through all of you. Thank you for helping us carry his spirit forward every day.
