Sending my condolences

Met you and immediately you were a breath of fresh air. You had flare and spark. You were beautiful from the inside out. You light will continue to forever shine. Loved the energy between you and Janel it was unbelievable. You will always be remembered.

To the family of Maxine:

I am deeply sorry for your great loss. A special condolence to you Marie, Raymond & Aaron.

Maxine was like my own daughter. I loved her dearly. She was just a special person. I nicknamed her "MS. FABULOUS" because she was fabulous indeed. She was just a very complete person. She was intelligent, lovely, loving, compassionate, kind, giving, stylish, trendy, excellent at event planning & so much more. She gave her all to everything. Most of all, she was always growing spiritually. She was always perfecting & growing in her spirituality. She wanted to be the best that she could be for God. I admired that in her the most.

I am ill for the last few days & will not be able to attend her Homegoing Celebration. I am so sorry about that.

Please know that I will be praying for all of you as you lay this sweet woman of God to rest. I plan to watch the livestream of the service. May a loving God comfort you today & always. If I can do anything for you family please let me know. I am just a call away. When I am better I will visit with you. May the peace & love of Christ be with you all.

Again, my deepest condolences to you all.

All my love to Maxine. I will surely miss her.

Lovingly,

Candyi Hunter

To all of Maxine's family:

There are not words enough to express all I feel for you all & for Maxine. I am deeply sorry for your loss. I extend a special condolence to you Marie, Raymond & to you Aaron. I loved Maxine as if she were my own daughter. I just chatted with her right before Xmas eve to say that I loved her & she said the same. So glad I had that chat. She had everything that makes a person a great & full individual. She was intelligent, beautiful, immaculate, loving, professional, highly generous, full of unending compassion, super thoughtful with an insatiable appetite for learning & always had time to help others. Most of all she was always tending to the perfection of her soul. She took excellent care of her spiritual garden. She was always growing spiritually so she could please God at every turn. Although her body is gone, her spirit is with us all. I nicknamed her "MS. FABULOUS" because she was just that! There are not too many people who are like her. She had a lock on style, grace, event planning, knowledge & setting an example for others.

I am very sorry that I cannot attend her Homegoing today. I am ill & have been for last few days. However, Please know that I am praying for you & there in spirit. I will watch the livestream of the service.

May a loving God give you peace, strength & comfort to lay her to rest. If there is anything that I can do for you family please let me know. I am just a phone call away. I will visit with some of you after I get over my illness. May the peace of Christ be with you now and always.

All my love & prayers, Candyi Hunter

To all of the family:

There are no words that are enough to express my deepest sympathy to the families of Maxine. I loved her as if she were my own daughter. She was a beautiful person, inside & out. I nicknamed her "Ms. FABULOUS." She had it all; Intelligent, Generous, friendly, loving, helpful, compassionate & always working on her spirituality. She took very good care of her spiritual garden. I hurt so much knowing that she has passed over but only her body is gone. She is still with us in spirit. I know that God has her & she will be at peace forever more. All of you know that I loved her. I am sorry that I cannot be at her celebration of life this morning but I am ill.

If there is anything I can do for any of you please let me know. I am deeply sorry for your loss & I mean DEEPLY. As soon as I am better I will see you all as I visit your homes. A very special condolence to you Marie & Raymond. I am just a call away from any of you. May a loving God help to strengthen you as you lay this beautiful & lovely girl that I adore to rest. May God's peace & mercy see you all through.

All my love to you. God bless you.

My sincere condolences to the family. May you be comforted by fond memories shared. K. Johnson

First to make you chuckle... there is no sufficient candle to select to honor Max. She would have had it multi-sherbert colored, blinged out, sitting on a regal iridescent pedestal and you would swear that you could smell the sweet tropical fragrance of some exotic flower coming through your computer screen, and the flame would have flickered like a sparkler...right!?

This world is not the same, absent of Maxine Arp. What an AWESOME gift we have all been given to have had her touch our lives, even for a short period of time. To know her, is to love her. Also amazing is to think of how many lives she has touched through her career as a flight attendant, affording her to travel around the world. A rare jewel has slipped through our fingers. Let us consider it an honor to have experienced Maxine. Many of us will not have another experience like her.

Raymond Sr. our hearts are with you and the rest of your family; and when you are missing your mother the most, remember that she is in you and your children's genes. Carry on her greatness.

Janel, you are forced to relearn how to function without your right hand. The sisterhood that you and Maxine shared was EXTRORDINARY. What a wonderful model of loyalty you two have left us with. Consider writing a book for young women today on how to nurture such a sisterhood.

To my cousin Aaron. I(we)love you soooooo much. You are so blessed. You have the privilege of being a member of two large and loving families of which you are close to on both sides (Arp/Bryant). You are father to three awesome children, and your blessings are topped off with the privilege of calling Maxine your wife. Proverbs 18:22 tells us that "He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord." Proverbs 31:10-12 goes on to say "An excellent wife who can find? She is far more precious than jewels. The heart of her husband trusts in her, and he will have no lack of gain. She does him good, and not harm, all the days of her life." ...Amen.

Never forget that you are surrounded by love even if we are not physically with you. -Cousins CarLa/Jim/Ila, and Aunt Peachie

We are gonna miss you soo much, but to know that to be absent from the body is to be present with God. So you rest in paradise sis until we meet again and we will meet again♥️ You done went to see the King Rest well Deb & Larry Washington & Harris Family

Sincere condolences to the entire family and every friend of Max, I'll always remember that infectious smile, voice and style! Rest in Paradise

Mrs. Maxine was definitely a beautiful person and had a beautiful Spirit. I remember her always dress to the tee. An her smile would light up the room. Im sending my love and deepest condolences to the whole family. As they experience this tragedy. Love Chanelle, Sanai and Basir

To the family and friends of Maxine Arp:

On behalf of my immediate family, the Griffins, and my extended family, the Browns, I would like to convey our deepest sympathies to you all. I've known Machine for most of my life, at least 40+ years and she was always a class act. She was truly a genuine person that brought out the best in everyone around her. Maxine did all she could to make sure her family and friends enjoyed life to the fullest, especially her son, grandchildren and her Mother and siblings. My husband had the privilege of DeeJaying for Aaron and Maxine's wedding. It was a fabulous event for an amazing couple (would she have it any other way?), and we were honored to have been there to share in their special day.

Please know Maxine left quite an impression on every one who knew her. I've never heard anyone say one negative thing about her, and the love she showed those closest to her will be etched in their minds and hearts forever. Anyone who never knew her missed out on knowing a beautiful soul.

May Maxine continue to rest until she is called back to life in the coming resurrection. (John 5:28, 29 and Acts 24:15)

May all of you find comfort in the memories you've shared with such a beautiful, sophisticated lady! You are all in my prayers.

Yvonne Brown-Griffin and family

My prayers and condolences to the family of Maxine. I worked with her at UPS (we were night auditors with Ms. Arlene as our supervisor) we had some of the best times. She was such an amazing, inspirational, person.She touched the lives of so many people.You definitely touched mines. She was such a beautiful person inside and outside. Most of all she loved God and her family; she was so positive and full of life!

Max was such a beautiful person inside and out. She lit up any space indoors or out where the sun shines but the sun couldn't compare to the radiant way about how she lived her life with love and care. I am still processing this loss of such an admirable woman. But am remembering with friends the wonderful memories of her laughter and smiles. MSL
