Maxine was born July 15, 1918 in Tooele to William Gaskell Briggs and Ethel Hanks Briggs.
She married Don Angus on February 3, 1940.
Maxine loved and cared for all the right things. Her family and friends came first and she always found time for them.
She enjoyed gardening and the out-of-doors, and visited a huge number of places in Utah and the surrounding states from the deserts to the mountains, she instilled in her family her love of them.
She was an avid crocheter and music lover. All children were special to her, and she volunteered to teach grade school children to read.
Maxine truly had "the gift of gab." She was a talker, but more important, she was a good listener. She was always willing to talk to, and listen to, family, friends, and complete strangers. Her loving heart, laughter, and open ear will be sorely missed.
Maxine is survived by her daughter, Kathy; son, Bill (Norma); one sister, one brother, and one grandchild. She is preceded in death by her husband, Don; daughter, Donine; and son, "Rick."
Graveside services will be held on Friday, May 27, 2005 at 2:00 p.m. in the Valley View Memorial Park, 4400 West 4100 South. The family will receive friends at a viewing on Thursday, May 26, 2005 from 6:00-8:00 p.m. at Valley View Funeral Home, 4335 West 4100 South.
