Maxine Reynolds entered her heavenly home March 9, 2024. She was born June 14, 1932, in Atwood, Oklahoma to Homer Amp and Esther Davis. Maxine grew up in Atwood and graduated from Atwood High School with the class of 1950. While in high school, she was active in all class activities and a member of the girls’ basketball team for four years.

Maxine married the love of her life, SSgt William (Bill) Reynolds, November 3, 1951, in Capitan, New Mexico. The newlyweds resided in Roswell, New Mexico, where Bill was stationed at Walker Air Force Base. Being a miliary family they had the opportunity to live on numerous bases across the United States from Alaska, Arkansas, New York and finally Arizona. Upon retiring from the Air Force Bill brought Maxine and their younger children back to her home state of Oklahoma.

Maxine then found her passion working as a successful real estate agent for Roy McCoy & Associates.
