Adrian and Marvin Adkins, nephews (sons of her sister Darline)
Yesterday
From us nephews, Adrian and Marvin, we send our love and prayers to all the family. So sad we are unable to attend services. Please know we love you and we are thinking about you. For a memory, I added a photo here of Aunt Maxine and her four siblings taken some years ago. Back row, left to right: her brother Oral (Bus) James, Aunt Maxine and her brother Jim James. Front row, left to right: her sister Darline Adkins (our mother) and her sister Jesse Washburn. All 5 have passed on now. God bless.
