The family would like to thank Maxine's caregivers: Koko Miyai, Georgia Stewart, Isidora Aqui, Keree Roen, Joanie McCulloch, Amy Roen and Sharee Hernandez. They will never know how much it meant to all of us knowing that our Mother was in such good hands and cared for with love and compassion.
Maxine will be dearly missed by all who loved her.
