It is with heavy hearts that we announce her sudden passing on December 19, 2024, at the age of 75 years old, in Winnipeg, Manitoba.
Maxine was born May 26, 1949, to Reg and Ruth Beatty in Carlyle, Saskatchewan. She attended both elementary and High School in Carlyle. Following graduation, she followed her dreams to Psychiatric Nursing in Weyburn, Saskatchewan, soon to find out this wasn’t a career for her and with that she was Manitoba bound. She settled in Winnipeg, and it was here that she found her calling in Bank of Montreal, she found her niche as an Auditor or “Bank Inspector her Mom would proudly say”, then Branch Manager at various locations in Winnipeg till her retirement in 2005 at the young age of 55 years old.
Maxine learned early in life the values of hard work, independence, loyalty and honesty and with these core values she flourished in every aspect in her life.
Many friends made over her lifetime be it on the fairways, curling rinks, ball diamonds, sailing ships, sandy beaches and of course the various BMO branches she worked at were all very important in Maxine’s life.
She kept her circle small, if you were in it you knew, in her retirement years she found fellowship in the Army and Navy where a few beers were flung, and meat draws won.
Special thanks to her closest friend Adele and neighbours who checked in on her over the years.
Maxine was predeceased by her parents Reg and Ruth Beatty, her brother Barry Beatty and her beloved babies Looney and Dakota.
She is survived by her only sister, Judy McArthur, nieces and nephews: Jeri-Lyn McArthur (Edge), Juanita McArthur-Big Eagle (Jay), Dawn Hayden (Jason), Marcie McArthur-Stevenson (Tony), Nathan McArthur (Missy),
Farrah McArthur (Brad), Topasannah Heuchert (Tyler), Eagle McArthur, Warren Beatty, Tracey Schoettle, and her beloved fur baby, Mysti.
Cremation has taken place, and no formal service will be held as per her request.
Anyone wanting to honor Maxine, can do so by donating to The Winnipeg Humane Society or Siloam Mission.

My sincere condolences to Maxine's family. This late tribute comes as Just today I learned of her passing. I met Maxine in 1967 in psych nurses training. Through the years we have kept in touch last meeting in person in 2019. She was a true friend and I shall miss her. Rest in Peace Maxine! - Posted by: Marilyn Cawte (Friend from Vernon, BC) on: Feb 10, 2025

Very sorry to hear of Maxine's passing. Very close friend and co-worker. Maxine was a bridesmaid at my wedding. We always had fun in our gathering over the years. We would have good meals, a few drinks and would visit the local casino. Rest in peace my friends, you will be missed by many. - Posted by: Wendy Aichele (Friend ) on: Dec 28, 2024

On behalf of both the John Blumberg Ladies Golf Club members and the Tuesday Ladies Golf Club members we wish to extend our sincere condolences to Maxine's family. Most of us met her through golf many many years ago. She was the the treasurer and membership chair for both clubs for all the years that we knew her. Yes, having the banking background went a long way in helping her keep the books straight. She was a pleasure to golf with and I know anyone who golfed with her will sadly miss her. She will also be missed by many of the patrons at the Army and Navy where she spent a lot of her time as well. May she rest in Peace. Sharon Lomonaco. - Posted by: Shaon Lomonaco (Golf Friend ) on: Dec 28, 2024

My condolences to Max’s family. I worked with her for many years. What I remember most was her dedication to her work and her joy of golfing. She and Adele also organized luncheons for people who retired from BMO which were fun to attend. She will be missed. - Posted by: Donna Rodericks (Coworker) on: Dec 28, 2024
