Maxine loved life and her family, even though she has been in bad health for several years, she loved spending time with family and going to family reunions. One of her favorite things was spending time at the lake with her sister, Denice and Denice’s husband, Clyde and all of their friends. She loved playing board games and cards with anyone that wanted to play and the only ones she would “let win” were the great grandkids.
