Wanda Lynneta Maxwell

Wanda Lynneta Tolliver Maxwell went joyously to Heaven on July 9, 2022. Wanda recently moved to Castle Rock, CO from her long-standing home in Denver to be closer to family. At 93 years of age, she was still bringing humor and love to all who shared in her daily care.

Wanda was born in 1929 in Wheeler, TX at the start of the great depression. She was the youngest child of Harry and Florence Tolliver and had six brothers and sisters. When she finished high school, she moved to California where she worked as an assistant to her singing teacher. Wanda attended the Pasadena Playhouse where she studied acting and singing. Upon graduation, she moved to Denver, CO where she lived and raised her family. Wanda loved playing the piano, singing and acting all her adult life. She worked for the original Frontier Airlines and enjoyed the benefits of travel with friends and family.

Wanda is survived by her son David (Lonia) Maxwell of Sedalia, CO and her daughter Paula Maxwell of Kennett Square, PA; four beautiful granddaughters Sarah and Hannah (Clint Field) Maxwell, As well as Perri Hamma and Danae Kingan (Dan). She also had the wonderful joy of meeting her two great grandchildren, Cody and Cara before she passed. Wanda is survived by numerous nieces and nephews and their families. She is preceded in death by both parents and all of her siblings.

First and foremost we want to thank Barb for her years of special love and care for Wanda. We are grateful for all the nurses and caregivers at Swedish Hospital, Castle Rock Hospital, Life Care Center of Littleton, Littleton Rehab Center, and of course all her caregivers/friends at Bonaventure in Castle Rock. We also appreciate Lumicare Hospice for their guidance and outstanding care. You all brought much love and laughter to her life these last six months and we hope you know how much she loved you all.

A celebration of life will be held at a later date in November. Please check back regularly to see the updated services.
