Serving as a military family in the United States Air Force for 20 years, Maxine was a church accompanist and piano teacher wherever they lived. The family settled in Littleton, Colorado after Bill’s retirement from the USAF. During their time in Littleton, Maxine cared for her invalid grandmother until her death in 1973.  She then pursued a career as a wedding and fashion consultant, working downtown Littleton at the Wedding Belle and Shauna’s Bridal. Maxine enjoyed volunteering and mentoring young people. She was passionate about missions work and outreach ministries. She poured her life into her children and family’s life and cherished adventuring with her grandchildren.
