    Maxine was a regular at my job and I would see her almost every day of the week. I remember us looking forward to seeing her because she was always the nicest person no matter what was happening in her life. She also wouldn’t miss an opportunity to compliment you on her way out. She made our day every time she came around and it’s sad to hear about the news. I hope her family is doing well and keeps her memory alive.
