We met Maxine and Lloyd Swindle when we moved to Granbury at the end of the summer, 1982. We have not known a more dynamic, loving couple as elder and wife anywhere we have lived. How they loved you 3 children and those 6 beautiful and accomplished grandchildren! All of you made them so proud. They knew how to face adversity with grace and smile even through tears. Oh, Heaven is a more joyful than ever place today. We can't wait to see Maxine and Lloyd on the other side!
