By | Uncategorized | No Comments

September 1, 1927 – August 30, 2017

Maxine was born on September 1, 1927, in Fremont, NE to parents, Felix and Blanche McDonald. She married the love of her life, Jack Hill, on June 5, 1948. Within 4 years, Mike, Ken and Nancy were born. Maxine never had a “job”, but always worked tirelessly to make every house a home. Between 1954 and 1960 there were many; Omaha NE, St Louis MO, Overland Park KS, South Salem NY, Hartland WI, and finally back to Omaha which was home to her large extended family. She took great pride in her new home in Keystone and went about raising three teenagers until a surprise addition joined the family in 1968, another precious daughter, Victoria Lynn. Sadly Jack, her partner and provider of 32 years, was lost to the family in 1979.  This began a new chapter in life, raising Vicki alone, while still serving her church and community through volunteer work for St James Rectory and delivering Meals on Wheels. With her four children grown, she began her next chapter, providing full time day care for Vicki’s three girls with unlimited love and support for all 9 grandchildren: Mike (LeAnne) – Jesica Hill; Ken (Nancee) – Zachary Hill (Amber), Lea Grey  (Nate), Jackie Warren (Dave), Alyx Hill; Nancy – John Walter (Kristine); Vicki (Jeff) – Marissa, Sophia and Talia Heckerson. She proudly welcomed 7 great grandchildren into the family: Zachary – Gramercy, Iris, and Whittier Hill; Jackie – Luke, Brandt, and Vivian Warren; John – Kate Walter.

In the past five years, she dealt with great loss of many family and friends with strength of character, dignity, and grace, just as she had lived.

She passed peacefully 2 days shy of her 90th birthday in her home of 57 years surrounded by her family. She will always be dearly loved and forever missed.

Preceded in death by parents, Felix and Blanche McDonald; loving husband, Jack Hill; beloved son, Ken Hill; sisters, Donna Albrecht and Kathleen Johnston; brother, Gerald McDonald. Survived by children;  Mike Hill (LeAnne), Nancee Hill (Ken’s Spouse), Nancy Walter and Vicki Heckerson (Jeff); 9 grandchildren and 7 great grandchildren; sister, Joyce Knauss (Duane); sister-in-law, Linda McDonald.

Visitation with family begins at 1pm on Saturday, October 21, followed by a Celebration of Life at 2pm. Please join us at Roeder Mortuary, 2727 N 108th St. Omaha, NE. In lieu of flowers, a memorial in her name to CUES or Pathways to Compassion Hospice in Omaha is preferred.
