Maxine (Brown) Weeks, ascended to her Heavenly home on Thursday, September 4, 2025. Maxine was a loving wife and nurturing mother that always put her faith and family first. She loved her church, church family and enjoyed being an active member at Quitman Baptist Church. Maxine had a big heart and a care-giving way.

In their early years, Maxine and her husband, Carl enjoyed spending their free time at the bowling alley bowling with their league.  Following Carl's retirement, they also loved to pull their camper out and go on adventures to find new terrain to explore. These traveling and camping adventures might lead to fishing or skiing, but no matter where they were they were bound to find a way to make fun-filled memories. Maxine was an avid reader and very quick to finish any book. She also was a skilled seamstress. She spent much time on a sewing machine sewing clothing for her family as she handmade her girl's clothing with love. She leaves a legacy of love and tender devotion behind and will be missed.

Those left to cherish her memory is her daughter, Carla (Weeks) Raborn and husband Ronnie; grandchildren, Susan (Traina) Wallis, Chad Raborn (Derek), Kristen (Raborn) Foster (Steven); great grandchildren, Tiffany (Graham) Ables (John), Josh Graham, Kallie (Wallis) Ingles (Craig), Oliver Foster, Landon Foster and Zachary Foster; 5 great-great grandchildren; and a host of nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.

Maxine was preceded in death by her husband, Carl Weeks; daughters, Sandy Weeks, Linda (Weeks) Wallis; parents, Harlin and Magnolia (Thomas) Brown; brothers, Robert Brown and Donald Brown.
