Maxine Lena Schluter was born May 1,1923 to John and Emma (Andresen) Schluter in Wolsey, South Dakota. She graduated from Wolsey High School in 1940. Maxine Married Donald Christopherson in 1940 and Verdean Vick in 2001. Don died in 1997 and Verdean in 2007. She worked on the family farm in Lake Crystal and worked at Telex Amco. Later, she worked at Sterling Tube in Englewood as a quality control operator. Maxine retired at Apache Junction in Arizona. After marrying Verdean Vick, the couple lived in Blanchardville, Wisconsin until 2009. Maxine then moved back to New Ulm to be closer to her family again.

The 25 years spent in Arizona were great years spent playing shuffleboard, dancing, and taking part in the Pack Entertainment. Her final 10 years in New Ulm were also deeply treasured with all the time she was able to be with her family as well. She will be dearly missed by those who knew her. Blessed be her memory.
