LeRoy Larry Madden, Jr.

Larry Madden passed away peacefully on August 16, 2020 after a brief illness.  He was born in Portsmouth, VA in 1954, the son of Mary Zirkle Madden and LeRoy Larry Madden, Sr.

Larry graduated from Woodrow Wilson High School in Portsmouth in 1973.  He worked at Norshipco before enrolling at ECPI to learn information technology.  He worked in ITT for the private sector before transitioning to the ITT department in the City of Chesapeake, until he retired.

Larry is survived by his wife of 36 years, Teresa Brown Madden, sister-in-law Susan B. Comer (Don), niece Kathleen, brother-in-law Michael J. Brown (Cheryl), nephew, Conor and his sisters Eileen Cole and Darlene Rhodes and a cousin, Blanche Sykes.

Larry enjoyed outdoor activities---boating-especially in the Chesapeake Bay area-scuba-diving the wrecks off the Outer Banks of North Carolina, and camping and hiking on the Eastern Shore and in the mountains of Virginia. He loved history and political discussions with his friends. We will all miss Larry's wry sense of humor.

A graveside service will be held 10:30 am Tuesday, August 25, at Meadowbrook Memorial Gardens, Suffolk, Virginia
