Andrew Martin Madson was born on October 12, 1934 to Rev. Norman A. and Elsie (Haakenson) Madson of rural Princeton, Minnesota. He was baptized into the Christian faith on November 4, 1934 at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church. Baptismal sponsors included Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Odegard, Mr. Martin Galstad, and his oldest sister, Vivian. His childhood was spent living in the parsonage next door, and attending the Lutheran elementary school one mile from the church. He was the youngest of the seven Madson children. His faith was edified daily through family devotions and memorizing hymns.
