Lillian Claire Tully Maxion, age 87, a lifelong resident of New Orleans, passed away peacefully on Sunday, August 25, 2019. She was an accounts payable clerk, employed at D. H. Holmes, The Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company, CUDD Pressure Control Company, and Consolidated Natural Gas Company. She truly loved working at each of these companies and never had a bad day at work. Her post-retirement hobby was playing the penny slots at various Mississippi Gulf Coast casinos and spending time with the friends that she made on the group buses to the casinos. Among her casino friends, she was known for playing only nine cents per play and meticulously documenting each of her transactions in a notebook. Lillian also enjoyed baking Italian cookies and spiked fruitcakes, preparing holiday dinners, and hosting crawfish boils for her family and friends. She is survived by her daughter Randi Hindman, son Ronald (Ronnie) T. Maxion, Jr., grandsons Samuel Hindman and Ronald (Ronson) Maxion, III. She is also survived by her sister Isabelle Tully O’Keefe, and numerous nieces and nephews. She is preceded in death by her ex-husband, Ronald T. Maxion, Sr., daughter Baby Maxion, her parents John E. and Lillian O. Tully, her brother John P. Tully, and her godparents Frank C. and Claire Basile.
