Carolyn Hicks Cates wrote a sympathy message

“For Bill, Roy, Wayne and Mark, Betty and all the friends I met and shared over years, who loved and benefited from our friendship with Maxine and her beloved Bobby. She introduced me to Roxboro Christian Women and there I gained many loyal friends who gathered once a month to celebrate being a Christian and sharing the joy of Christ in our lives. Maxine and I shared a close friendship and I have and will miss her. She will always hold a special place in my heart.”
