Maxine was born to John Olen and Bessie Whitley on August 11, 1931. Her six grandchildren and fifteen great-grandchildren affectionately called her “ Nanny.” She loved and cared deeply for her family and friends, enjoyed cooking and serving with the ladies of the China Spring Civic Club and kept in touch with her friends she worked with at Hillcrest Hospital for 22 years.
She is survived by her husband of 67 years, Bobbie Alan Bearden of China Spring; daughter, Kathy Nichols of Waco and husband Roy; son, Rev. Don Bearden and wife Doris of Breckenridge, Texas; brother, Harlon Don Whitley and wife Barbara of Clifton; sister, Barbara Vinson and husband Donald Lee; and sister-in-law Sue Bearden of Aurora, Colorado.
Her family would like to thank the staff of Clifton Sunset Home for their tender care while she was there for re-habilitation as well as the nursing staff of Goodall-Witcher Hospital and Sunset Hospice who cared for her when she became ill. “Words are not enough to express our gratitude for the tenderness and love shown to all of us in her last days with us.”
Memorials may be made to Oak Grove Baptist Church Children’s Ministries.
