"Maxine will be missed. She always was willing to talk to people, did not put on airs. Her pleasant manner,her smiling face,her excitement in trying to get you to do something fun made you want to be around her. Her happy attitude , her ability to enjoy life with a generous helping of laughter is something I will remember. I am glad I got to know her because of my mom Louise, her cousin and friend. They did have some great times and it is my belief that things up there will start rockn with both of them together again! God bless. Jeanie dow"
