I'm so sorry not to be able to pay my respects in person to Jane, Barbara, and Beth and their families. Max and I served on the V.N.A. Board together for many years, plus church and family connections. The Luthans, Snell, and Boardway families were long time friends of my family and my late husband, Doug Lass. Max was a classmate of my late sister, Dorothy Sites Carter. Bob was so proud of his sisters and their families. Everyone who had the pleasure of knowing Maxine was very fortunate. She always had a friendly smile and warm personality.
