Loving mother of Sherry Huffman (Dennis), Lori Winter (Keith) and Sandi MacDonald (Charles Fox). Proud grandmother of Ryan (Adele), Nina, Marissa (Daniel), Ethan (Nikki), Matthew and Nicholas. Cherished great-grandmother of Pearl, Hugo and Sadie. Dear sister of Sandra O'Connor (late Bernie), and the late Jim Mitchell (Carol), and sister-in-law to Joan McDonald (Al). Maxine will be fondly remembered by her nieces and nephews, Lee O'Connor (Bob), Brian O'Connor (Susan), the late Pat O'Connor (Janet), Debbie O'Connor, Jim Mitchell (Roni), Don Mitchell (Alma), Kelly Hannah and Sean Hannah, as well as her great-nieces and nephews, Bobbie, Jamie, Kristen, Ashleigh, Courtney, Mitchell, Ross, Bailey, Reece, Devon, Brett, Daniel, Sheldon, Alex, Sam, Kayla, Katie, and Shane, as well as other cherished extended family and friends.
Maxine was born in Brandon, Manitoba and grew up in the communities of Ingelow, Gregg, Arden, and Winnipeg, Manitoba. She moved many times in her adult life, settling her family in the cities of Calgary, Thunder Bay, and Guelph, among others. She had lived in Burlington for the last 12 years.
Maxine's family was her greatest love. She will also be remembered for her wicked sense of humour, her love of The Shopping Channel, and the expression of her love to others through her gifts of baking. She was the Blue Jay's number one fan.
As per Maxine's wishes, cremation has taken place. A family Celebration of Life will take place at a later time.

Maxine came to live with us when I was about two. As an example of how much family meant to her... She always sent me birthday cards and anniversary cards over many years, Recently she or I would visit via the phone at Christmas. She told me in our last conversation that she felt I was like her first child. I guess that explains the cards!! The Mardell family have my condolences as the they move into the next decade without Maxine! our Love to you all.
