Maxine will be surely missed by all her neighbors, myself being one of them. It was comforting knowing she was living right there in this neighborhood within which we both grew up. My condolences to all her children and family members.

I did not have the pleasure of meeting her but have the pleasure of knowing her son, Craig, so knowing she raised such a wonderful person that is a reflection of her. They always say, you get out, what you put in. And from the way Craig talks about his siblings they are wonderful as well. My thoughts and prayers are with the family in time of need.

Sue called to tell my brother John and I about Maxine's death. Our love to you all. Like the rest of the Truxillo clan, we spent summer and holiday time in Donaldsonville during our growing up years. I was just thinking of Maxine a few days ago. She will be missed.
