Aunt Maxine. There are pleasant memories of visits to your home as a child. Playing under the watchful eye of (Denise, My now Angel cousin) I always was made to feel safe. Even at times when we could have been harmed the loving presence of the home you created was always a safe haven. May God give you His Love, Blessing, Peace, and Rest. Love, Augustus McNair II

I always thought about you and even though I don't know you you always resonated in my mind. I love you! Take your Rest Queen and be with your baby, I know y'all have alot of catching up to do. I will still keep tabs on you even though you are gone, every time you cross my mind..once again I love you Legend!! From Waco Texas to Alabama!

Deepest sympathies to the family and friends. May our Grand Creator comfort and support you all through this time of loss and in the coming days ahead continue to be a source of refuge.

I have seen the documentary of the bombing many years ago and saw Mrs. McNair as a classy, no nonsense lady. She made an impression on me. Although I reside in the Bahamas, I feel a connection with Afro-Americans as my Paternal grandfather was an American. I grieve with you today. I pray that the family of Mrs. McNair find solace in Christ. Sleep In Peace Mrs. Maxine McNair.

Maxine was a fine and gracious woman. She will be missed by all who had the privilege to know her. Thinking of you Kim and Lisa.

Our deepest condolences to the family. We pray that God continues to strengthen and comfort the family during this difficult period.
