Maxine M. Marbury, 90, of Fernwood, passed peacefully on Saturday, December 10,2022 in the home of her daughter and son-in-law, Melva and James Hucabee of Magnolia. The Family gratefully appreciates all concerns but has respectfully requested a private service and burial attended by immediate family, close friends and caretakers.

She was born in Biloxi, MS on January 1,1932 to Grace and Delmar McCormick.

As a lifelong homemaker, she loved to sew, quilt , and refurbish antique furniture.  Her family loved to gather around her table sharing the laughter and food provided.  She had invited Jesus into her heart and life and asked His mercy on her soul, which He gave in her peaceful departure.  The Lord richly blessed all of us through the extended years of her life on this earth, and she will be greatly missed.

She was preceded in death by her husband of 61 years, Wesley L. Marbury; her mother Grace N. Thorton; and her father Delmar C. McCormick.

She is survived by her only daughter and son-in-law, Melva M. and James W. Hucabee of Magnolia, two granddaughters and their husbands, Dori H. Rushing (John) of Puckett, MS, Dawn H. Brady (Clark) of Jayess,MS, one grandson and his wife, Malcolm Hucabee (Jesse) of Liberty, MS, six great grandchildren and spouses Brennan R. Jordan (Hunter), Quade Rushing, Dylan Brady (Cortney), Conner Brady, Wyatt Hucabee, and Savannah Hucabee, and two great-great granddaughters Avery and Katherine Brady, along with one sister June Poole of Meridian.
