Maxi, my sister and my friend. The holidays will not be the same this year. There will be a missing seat at the table and in our circle. You will be missed in presence, but not in heart. Thank you for being a very important part of my life. We've laughed, danced, ate good, and had fun. You were a warrior and beat many odds, now it's time to rest. I know you're dancing with the angels. Rest, my sister, my friend. Pam and Preston Ambles from Lovejoy Georgia.
