Maxine Corbin, our mom and Mamaw. Passed away from this life at Baptist hospital in Oklahoma City on October 24, 2020 at the age of 93. She left this world with her oldest son, Danny, by her side.
Mamaw was born in Granite, OK on November 20, 1926 to Ben and Mary (Rusk) Buford. Her and her family moved to Bakersfield, California, where she spent a lot of her childhood years. Her family eventually moved back to Oklahoma where she has been ever since.
Maxine met the love of her life, Dana and they were married on February 27, 1945, to this union they welcomed Cuba Deann, Mary Kay, Danny Austin, David Lynn, Dee Max, Darrell Duane, and Don Charles. They built their life, family and farm hand in hand together north of Lone Wolf, Ok.
Maxine was wonderfully devoted to her 7 children, 15 grandchildren, 31 great grandchildren and 11 great ~ great grandchildren. She loved all of us deeply and never failed to tell us how proud she was of each of us.
She led by example. There was never a job too large or too small that she could not tackle. She was a God-fearing Christian, who could not wait to get to heaven. We will remember our Mamaw mostly for being the best Mother and Mamaw we could have ever asked for. She will also be remembered for being an amazing wife, boss and citizen of her community and church.
