Birth date: Sep 12, 1926 Death date: Aug 28, 2023
Maxine Marie Remenschneider, 96, of New Haven, Indiana, passed away Monday, August 28, at Seasons Home Care Hadley House, Fort Wayne. On September 12, 1926, Maxine was the first of three children born to Herman "Pete" and Marie (B Read Obituary
My memories include trips to the Lake with Tom's ad-hoc choir and a beautiful woman with a welcoming smile greeting us and treating us like her own. May you remember as you grieve, Maxine is now in the hands of our Lord and Savior, enjoying a far better choir than we could ever have been. "...If life on earth be sweet, what must Thy heaven be? My knowledge of that world is small, the eye of faith is dim. But tis enough that Christ knows all and we shall be with him."
I have fond memories of Aunt Maxine's loving presence at the many Macke family gatherings. I also recall many childhood days of picking fruit in the Remenschneider Orchard and her kind reminders that eating too many sour cherries would give me a tummy ache. I last saw her this past June, 2023 when I went with my mother, her sister, Gloria, to visit. Watching the two of them lean across the arms of their chairs to talk with each other with such joy and love was a blessing. Aunt Maxine's gentle, generous, loving spirit will be missed here on earth and welcomed in heaven above.

For all the memories Maxine Marie gave us, my most cherished are the many holiday meal spreads she prepared for our large family gatherings, always complimented with her wonderfully baked desserts from tea rings, cup cakes, coffee cakes, birthday cakes, cookies, and, those pies filled with the fruits of our orchard. Ever more precious now are the pie recipes she shared with me when I was too far away to get my share of her baking talents. Every time I bake a Dutch apple cream pie, strawberry rhubarb pie, cherry pie, or apple cranberry pie, her presence will be warmly felt.
