Sis. Maxwell was one of my heroes, a lady to look up to and pattern ones life after. I became acquainted with her around 35 years ago while living in Corpus Christi. When Bro. Jack was in port close to Corpus, Sis. Maxwell would ride with my mother when she came to visit my family.She impressed me from the beginning as being a gracious lady that was at all times a true representative of the body of Christ.Truly, she is the victorious one today and will begreatly missed.
