I am so sorry to hear about your loss! Ms. Maxine was part of the group I would take on their Thursday outings and I have to say she was a FAVORITE of mine! She was always so sweet and soft spoken! I will TRULY miss seeing her smiling at me when I drive up and our talks about how much we loved butterflies! May GOD give you all comfort and strength during this difficult time! Rest In Heaven Ms. Maxine!
