Maxine Francis Mahal, 80, passed away June 15, 2023, in her home, surrounded by her loving family. It would be wrong to say that she lost her battle because she never stopped fighting, she was always determined. When anyone else would have broken, she stayed strong. Through her faith and standing on Gods promises, we know what resilience and perseverance truly look like. There was no quit in her.

Maxine was a devout, active member of Blessed Trinity Catholic Church, where she participated in numerous church functions. She was an instrumental figure for her grandchildren and great-grandchildren’s spiritual path and their sacraments in the Catholic faith.
