Maxine "Ma" Brown, 90, passed away peacefully on July 11, 2017 in Hamilton, Texas. She was born and raised in Blooming Grove, Texas. She met her husband, Nolan Brown, in Frost, Texas, and they soon married and started a family.
Family was the most important thing to Ma, and as her family grew she was able to enjoy them for many years. She loved her God, her family, her country, sports, horse racing, playing dominoes and shoes. She was full of life and knew how to have fun…she was known as that "spunky" little lady. She was also a member of the Lamkin United Methodist Church.
Maxine was preceded in death by her husband, Nolan; son, Bobby; her parents, Daddy Drew and Mother Bertha Gillen; and her four siblings.
She is survived by her daughter and son-in-law, Betty and Glenn Hodges of Lamkin; her grandchildren Sloan Brown and wife, Johanna of Waco; Matt Hodges and wife, Gayla of Gatesville; Emily Jensen and husband, Matt of Pflugerville; and Nicole Brayton of Houston. She was blessed with nine great-grandchildren and two great-great-grandchildren. She was also blessed with some very special nieces and nephews.
Arrangements under the direction of Riley Funeral Home, Hamilton, Texas.
