"I worked with Maxine at Glenayre and also knew her & Chuck from church. I always found her to be a caring and sweet person. We had many laughs together at work. Since you are not having an evening visitation I will not be able to pay my respects in person but wanted you to know that I thought highly of her. My prayers are with you, the family as you mourn her loss, but know she is on a far better place and one day you will be reunited."
In loving memory of
Maxine Dorothy Delven
