southernchickie Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 She is one of the 1st people I met when I started going to Bethany. She's just a sweet, quiet, unassuming lovely lady. She raised some of the finest people in ourcounty, and has adorable grandchildren. It always inspired me when I saw her husband and her look at each other. It's always to soo apparent that they are still madly in love with each other..after all these years. We all can only hope to find what they have. Miss you Mrs. Maxwell.

GaLinemansWife Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 You will be greatly missed Frances. She and Johnny are my neighbors and I have never met sweeter people, nor seen a couple who is the true epitome of LOVE. Frances was such a kind soul and I know she will be missed. Dont worry, we will make sure Johnny is taken care of! The family is in our prayers. Link to post Share on other sites
