Maxine and Eddie spent their retirement years traveling around the world and exploring the family history from Europe. They also spent many winter months with their RV club traveling down south to enjoy the warmer weather.

Maxine was a devoted mother, grandmother, great grandmother, and great-great grandmother who enjoyed hosting family and holiday events at her house. She loved to cook and was passionate about preparing full course meals for everyone to enjoy.
