To Maxie"s Family, Maxie's mother, Bea, and my mother Gladys Judice, were the best of friends and we(Dean, Dot, Hazel & Jimmy) played with Maxie & Shirley just about every day of our chidhood years. They were like our own brother and sister. What great times we had! In our adult years, we have had the joy of spending time together, especially recently. We were all shocked and heartbroken to learn that Maxie had passed away so suddenly, and extend our deepest sympathy to all of his family. Love, Dean Bowen
