    Thank you NORTH ESCAMBIA.COM for including this article about my dear, sweet
    sister: MAXINE. We miss her terribly; however, from her own testimony, she will be at home in HEAVEN. So, you know we couldn’t wish her back here where problems plague each of us and she was no exception to some difficulties.

    Met with all her family, her siblings and great friends for a great Memorial service.
    God is a comforter and He, through His Spirit, came through for all of us.

    Thanks to the Johnson Funeral Home for the dignified service. God Bless all of you for praying for us and for being with us!
