Note:
Maxine a Pinetops NC native before moving about 10 -12 miles away to Princeville NC has always been a tough, caring and giving person. I have been knowing her all of my life because she is a very good friend of the family. She and my mom the late Dorothy Gray Horne Dancy was close.
I had heard about Maxine’s illness through her cousin my co-worker. It is good to see and hear from her. This is the Maxine I know strong and dedicated to whatever she believes in.
Maxine take this one day at a time and know that God is able.
