Maxine Yarbrough White passed away in Southport, NC in the early morning hours of December 28th, 2023, after a valiant three year battle with cancer. She was born on August 8th, 1935 in Coffee County, Alabama to Aubie and Bessie Henderson Yarbrough.
A keen observer of sport, her favorites being golf and football, she loved her Wolf Pack and Crimson Tide. Maxine lived her life as her mother before her, working endlessly and cherishing her family and friends. She lived with bountiful grace in spite of life’s adversities. Her beauty inside and outwill be missed by all who had the opportunity to meet her.
Preceding her in death were her parents, and siblings (EW, James, Hoyt, Noah, and Christine), as well as her grandson Trevor Gentry. Maxine is survived by her sister Virginia Wood (Jimmy), and her children Ronald E. White Jr., Mark G. White (Cyndy) & Jennifer White; grandchildren Chelsea Ray (Adam), Ferguson Menz (Victoria), John Underfer (Destinee), Austin White, Kimble White, Ellis White & Maddox White, as well as great-grandchildren Abel and Charlie Ray, and many nieces and nephews throughout the South. And not to forget her dear friends Darcus and Barbara. RTR!!
A Memorial Service & Storytelling is being organized and will be announced in the near future.
Rest in Peace now Maxine, with your Lord & Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.
