I had the pleasure meeting Mrs. Maddox professionally, in her last days. She always greeted me with a beautiful smile and gentle voice. Your sweet and caring character showed, even though a time when you strength and health were not at its best. What a role model you have been to me in such brief meeting. My heart goes out to her friends and family. I know you will be missed.

Jean was the real thing. She loved going to Bucks Lake, playing cards and telling stories. We treasure the times we spent with her and Howard.
It saddens us to see the end of a special era.
Our thoughts are with Donna, Georgia and Gloria and families.
