MAXINE RUTH LOWE

July 11, 2021

Maxine Ruth Lowe, 89, Clinton, travelled to her Heavenly home Tuesday, May 11, 2021.

Maxine will be remembered as a kind, gentle, and generous person. Her family describes her as a loyal and faithful woman. She was known for cooking for families and friends during times of grievances; she was always willing to help. Maxine was a lover of the Lord and of flowers. She was a housewife who raised seven children and also cleaned a local church for several years before her passing. She felt like that was a way for her to give back to her community, and most importantly, to serve the Lord. She will be deeply missed by her family.
