She, also, loved being a nurse.  She retired from Dupont, after a full career as an Occupational Registered Nurse.  During her career, she served as President of the Occupational Nurses Association, which she helped organize in 1980, in order to support active occupational nurses in the Northeast area of Georgia.

Maxine’s family and friends remember her as a kind, caring, and selfless mother, grandmother and great-grandmother (Mimi), and dear friend to so many. She is survived by her children, Susan Ranson (John); Bob Mundy (Milby), both of Columbia, South Carolina; and Bill Mundy (Christine) of Athens, Georgia. Grandchildren include Matt Mundy (Ashton); Ellen Rennebaum (Jake); Nick Ranson (Martha); Carter Mundy; and her namesake, Amelia Evelyn Mundy.
