Dear Reynolds Family, deepest sympathy to all of you. You cared for my employer's(the Klouw's) children, and gave loving help to Floyd and Lorraine. Always remember the tart cherry pies made for Floyd. I also remember your family coming into the office for any of their ailments. You had a way of making everyone feel special.

To the family which was part of my extended family as we all loved Maxine so dearly. She served as my life-line as she cared for Dr. Floyd and me along with the boys. She went the extra mile for us, cared for kids and pets so no matter where I was I felt the family was safe. From regular meals prep to baking cherry pie for Floyd - everything she did for us was special and appreciated. I know she is at peace even though we will miss her. Thanks Maxine for everything.

Dear Friends and Family of Maxine,
I want to echo the words my brother wrote, Maxine was a grandmother figure in my life, since I was two years old and I think of you all often. I will always remember and cherish all those fun times we had together, especially the clandestine trips to McDonalds after morning Kindergarten. Know that our prayers are with you in this time of grief. God Bless.

Dear Reynolds Family, our family was so sorry to hear of Maxine's passing. She was such an important person in caring for both myself and Robert as we grew up. We could always count on her to help us when our Mom and Dad were at the office caring for others. She was a woman of great strength and compassion and will always be in our thoughts.

So sorry for the loss of your mother. I have wonderful memories of visiting with her as a child. Her laugh was so contagious. She was such a strong woman, never giving up during many hard times. Prayers to you during this time of grief.
