“Not, how did they die, but how did they live?

Not, what did they gain, but what did they give?

These are the units to measure the worth

Of a person as a person, regardless of birth.

Not, what was their church, nor what was their creed?

But had they befriended those really in need?

Were they ever ready, with a word of good cheer,

To bring back a smile, to banish a tear?

Not, what did the sketch in the newspaper say,

But how many were sorry when they passed away?”

Nicholas Paul Madish, 63, passed away peacefully surrounded by family on April 20^th, 2024 in his home following a brief battle with cancer.
Born August 21st, 1960, he was a son of the late Peter and Mary Madish. In addition to his parents, Peter and Mary Madish he was preceded in death by a son, Nicky Jr., 6 months old in 1990, brothers Pete and John Madish, sisters Ruth Stirling and Nancy Cindrich. Close brother-in-law Frank Chirico, brother-in-law Charles Davis, brother-in-law Brian Barker. He is survived by sisters, Rosemary Barker of Knoxville, Tennessee, Shirley-Jim Shaffer of Beaver Falls, Susan Davis of Monaca, Julie-Wayne Gibson of Chippewa Township, sister-in-law Peggy Madish of Industry, brother-in-law Gary Stirling of Butler and his sister Diane Chirico of Beaver who was always there throughout his life and especially in his time of need. He is also survived by numerous nieces, nephews, great nieces, and great nephews.
Nick was a 1978 graduate of Western Beaver High School, where he excelled in baseball, machinist tech, and was known as a novice artist.
After graduation Nick traveled to Daytona Beach with friends for summer work, working several jobs before finding a liking at a local busy pizzeria.
What started as a summer adventure at the local pizzeria, turned out to be profoundly impactful on his years ahead. In 1988, Nick took that experience and alongside his brother-in-law and sister (Frank and Diane Chirico), created a successful family business, Top of the Ninth Pizza while bartending during the day at Mickey’s Bar in Industry. With the help of nieces, nephews, extended family members and coworkers/friends who turned into family, operated the pizza shop together for many decades and continue to this day. The family will always remember his contributions to the business and cherish their memories made together.
Recently, after stepping away from the family business, he gained employment at Eaton Beaver, where we are sure he touched many lives with his infectious spirit.
Nick was known as a kind lighthearted man, who made friends easily after a short conversation. Those who were close to him, respectfully and affectionately referred to him simply as, “Uncle Nick.” He was known for his wisdom at or around beer #4, was an avid PA Lottery player looking for that big win, and he had a little luck here and there. Nick was a helping hand to anyone that needed it. Sometimes a “close talker,” he had a contagious laugh and smile that brought people joy. He lived life at his own pace and never had a bad word to say about anyone. The youngest of 10 siblings, he always made his presence known at crowded family gatherings.
As a family man with no surviving children, he shared his life with his nieces and nephew, Nicole, Tina, and Frank as if they were his kids. Nick will be deeply and sadly missed by family and many friends.
We ask that you honor Nick’s legacy by taking a chance on a scratch off ticket/playing the lottery or simply buying the person next to you a shot of Seagram’s VO or a cold beer.
In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the to the American Cancer Society or St Jude’s Children Hospital.
Our family would like to thank the Good Samaritan Hospice nurses for the great care of our brother/Uncle Nick.
A celebration of life luncheon will be held for family and friends on Sunday, May 5th, 2024, from 1 – 4p.m. at Monaca Turners, 1700 Brodhead Road, Monaca.
