Maxine Pender went home to be with the Lord on September 23, 2022 at the age of 86.
Maxine lived a long life of selfless giving. She had a compassion for children and was a dedicated teacher for over 35 years. Maxine had a strong foundation in faith and that was evident in her volunteerism at church. She loved to sing and play the piano as an outreach to senior adults. Maxine had strong family ties and her home was frequented by friends as everyone enjoyed her fantastic cooking. If you were lucky enough to be a recipient of her famous pound cake, you would agree it was the best you ever tasted.
Maxine will be dearly missed by all who loved her.
There will be a private graveside ceremony in Bryan, Texas to honor her; followed by a celebration of life at a later date in Bernice, LA.
Donations can be made to St. Jude Children’s Hospital or First Baptist Church in Bernice, LA, if you so choose.
