Family mourns loss of ‘vibrant' woman killed in Western Mass. motorcycle crash
A family is mourning the loss of 'a vibrant and spirited' woman — Madisen Taylor — who lost her life in a car crash involving a motorcycle in Western Massachusetts over Memorial Day weekend.
'Madisen's loving and warm personality made a significant impact on the lives of those who knew her,' Taylor's obituary reads. 'She will be deeply missed.'
Taylor died in a crash between a car and a motorcycle in Agawam in the early evening of Saturday, May 24.
Agawam police responded to the crash at the intersection of Suffield Street and Adams Street shortly before 5:10 p.m.
At the scene, officers found Taylor with severe injuries. Firefighters brought her to Baystate Medical Center in Springfield where she later died.
Taylor grew up in Ware and attended Pathfinder High School, her obituary states. Taylor's education helped her develop 'a passion for horticulture and gardening' as well as a 'deep appreciation for the beauty of nature.'
She later moved to Agawam and started working in a dog daycare business.
'This career not only highlighted her nurturing nature but also her desire to bring happiness to the lives of others,' Taylor's obituary reads. 'Madisen's spirit was one of vibrant kindness; she had a smile that could light up a room and she gave the best hugs.'
Outside of work, Taylor loved to sing and spend time outdoors, including at botanical gardens, the Quabbin Reservoir and the Swift River.
The 26-year-old is survived by her parents, sister, fiancé, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
Meanwhile Agawam and State Police and the Hampden County District Attorney's Office are investigating the crash.
No further information has been released.
