My thoughts are with the family during this time of sadness. I spent many nights at the Maxson home and remember how sweet Mrs. Maxson was. Steve and Bridget were my friends during grade school and high school. I am so sorry for the loss of your mother.
We are sorry for your loss and our absence in this time of mourning. I will never forget all the breakfasts and food that we always got from your mom without ever a complaint about the work. Pat and I are saying our prayers for her and all of the family.
Dear Steve and family, Please accept our heartfelt condolences on the passing of Kathryn. We hope that the love of family and friends will comfort and strengthen you all in the days ahead. “the Lord is close to the broken-hearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit,” Psalm 34:18
My sympathy to the family during this time of sadness.
Sorry for your loss.
Due to sickness, we were unable to attend the service for our Aunt Kathryn. Please know that the family is in our thoughts and prayers!
I first met Kathryn Elizabeth Maxson in 1950 when I was just 13. Mom Maxson was my wonderful Mother-In-Law. She gave me my childhood sweetheart and wife of 64 years. I could write a book on the things she meant to me. Shortly after I married her oldest daughter, I asked her what I should call her. I had always called her Mrs. Maxson. She quickly said: “Just call me Mom like the other kids do.” And so, it was always Mom. She had a wonderful sense of humor. She was the best Mother-In Law ever. I will always love her and I miss her so much. Rest In Peace Mom. Sonny
I first met Kathryn (Spotloe) Maxson and her family in 1950. In 1958, I married her oldest daughter, Sondra. I loved her dearly. As my Mother-In-Law, she was the absolutely best. I miss her so much and I hope and pray that someday, I get to see her again in Heaven. RIP Mom Maxson. Marrying your daughter was the best thing that ever happened to me. I Love You.
