Steven and Crystal Owens of Shumansville are proud to announce the birth of their first daughter , Madelyn Grace Owens. She was born at St. Mary’s Hospital on March 6, 2008 at 10:43 am. She weighed 2lbs. with a length of 13 ½ inches. Though Madelyn Grace is not home with her family yet, she is growing stronger and spunkier with her family of wonderful NICU doctors and nurses at St. Mary’s Hospital. When our precious miracle is ready, she will be welcomed home by her maternal grandparents Joseph and Kathryn McVay, paternal grandparents Jimmy and Barbara Owens, and her big sister Ashley. The Owens family would like to graciously thank their family, friends, local churches, Dr. Rinehardt and staff from Virginia Women’s Center, and the staff of St. Mary’s Hospital for all of their special care, loving support, and powerful prayers.
