Helen Maxine Zimmer
Helen Maxine Zimmer passed away on Memorial Day, May 25th, 2015. She was 89 years old and said herself that she had lived a wonderful and full life. In the days prior to Maxine’s death, her family and friends had gathered with her, shared stories, laughed and prayed. She could not have been more pleased with the support, love and camaraderie.
Maxine lived life to the fullest. The evening before she took ill, she was in her flower beds, weeding and emptying pots with her favorite person, her son David. The next day her daughter, Kathy, was taking her to get her hair done and then on the get new flowers for this year’s pots. She was happy!!!
Maxine enjoyed Scrabble with her friend, Doris, cards with Irma and Betty and sitting on the front porch chatting with Helen, Alda and the neighborhood ladies. Even though Maxine had previously lost her parents, her in-laws, a brother, a sister and her wonderful husband Chester, she delighted in her grandsons, Eric and Nathan, her son-in-law Ron, her brother and sister-in-law, Louie and Agnes, and all her supportive, tight knit nieces, nephews and extended family,
There will be visitation for Maxine, Thursday night (May 28) from 6-8 at McClure-Schafer-Lankford Funeral Home. The family will be holding a private memorial service at a later date. Messages of sympathy may be sent to the family at www.Lankfordfh.com.
Maxine will be missed!!!
