Madelyn’s Story

A life of joy, love, and connection that continues to inspire

During the 2026 school vacation, the Eitas family traveled to Utah to ski in the Rocky Mountains. On the fourth day of their trip, Madelyn was tragically caught in an avalanche while skiing with her father and brother.
She passed away on February 19, 2026, leaving behind a legacy of love, joy, and inspiration. She skied into heaven that day.

Maddie was joyful, athletic, adventurous, and a natural leader who cherished time with her teammates, friends, and family. She had a deep love for dancing, soccer, skiing, and the outdoors, and she possessed a remarkable ability to bring people together.

In loving memory of our beloved daughter, Madelyn “Maddie” Eitas, Forever1111 Organization was created to honor the extraordinary light and joy she brought into our lives and to all who knew her.

Maddie was deeply connected to her community. Whether on the soccer field, the ski slopes, or spending time with friends and family, she made every moment brighter.

It is our sincere hope that these efforts will strengthen the community she loved so deeply and serve as enduring reminders of her kindness, courage, and vibrant spirit. We are grateful for your support in remembering Maddie and ensuring that her legacy continues to inspire others and promote safety for years to come.

Forever 11:11 was inspired by Madelyn. She was born on May 11, wore number 11 on the soccer field, and skied into heaven at the age of 11.

In our home, 11:11 was always the moment to make a wish. Known as an angel number, 11:11 now represents Madelyn’s spirit and serves as a reminder to turn wishes into action.

Her Spirit Lives On

Maddie was joyful, athletic, adventurous, and a natural leader who cherished time with her teammates, friends, and family. She had a deep love for dancing, soccer, skiing, and the outdoors, and she had a remarkable ability to bring people together.

In tribute to her spirit, Forever1111 Organization supports avalanche awareness, skiing safety initiatives, youth soccer, and future community-focused programs. We are proud to partner with organizations that reflect her passions and values.

It is our hope that these efforts continue to strengthen the community she loved and serve as lasting reminders of the impact she made in her life.
