    I did not know Mrs Maxwell, but her husband Dr Maxwell was our family practice physician, there in Atmore. My condolences to her family and friends.

    Mrs. Maxwell was a very gracious woman, and a person that I always enjoyed being around. She will be missed. For Tommy and Bo, and the rest of the family, my condolences and prayers. I am sorry I was not able to be there yesterday.
