Carolyn Maxwell Obituary
Carolyn Maxwell, of Omaha, Nebraska, gained her angel wings November 29, 2024 surrounded by family.
Carolyn was an angel here on earth and a true warrior to God. Her selfless heart was always full of love and compassion for all who came into her life.

She is survived by her husband: Charles Maxwell; daughters: Pamela Maxwell, Melissa Volentine, Rita Nelson (husband: Tim), and Tina Maxwell; grandchildren: Charles Vitols, Carissa Volentine, Courtney Volentine, Wyatt Nelson, and Kinsley Nelson; great-grandchildren: Hudson, Mackenzie, and Dakota Graff; sister: Ileeta Scolaro.
