So sorry for your loss. We were at the 50th Graduation Year Luncheon for Madonna High School yesterday and this was the first time any of us had heard of Maxine's passing. We had all been looking forward to seeing her again as she was at the luncheon each year and we all sat together catching up. She was a great girl and led a great life.

I knew your sweet, strong family from the days of the SLC. I enjoyed talking to Maxine. She always had something wise to share and was a caring person. I remember how she loved Jimmy and watched after her mom. The world is a better place because of Maxine. My condolences to all of you. Kathy Erickson Tobin
