After retiring, he worked at KDMK for 10 years. He was a very hardworking man and always provided for his family. Madison always saw the best in people and would give them a chance. He was always present for the ones he loved and was there for them no matter what. Fishing and playing the guitar was two of his favorite things but what he enjoyed the most was spoiling his grandchildren.
