Mrs. Maurice J. Buckner was born on June 27, 1954, in Fairfax, Alabama. On Monday, April 27, 2026, at 274 Johnson Street, the angels of Heaven stood by her bedside and whispered, “Come with me for eternal rest.”

Maurice was educated in the Valley Public School System and later earning an associate’s degree from Southern Union.

Maurice was known as a loving person, a lady of strength, and never met a stranger. She loved everybody and made lasting friendships that held her family together.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Frank and Rosie Johnson; siblings, Jimmy Floyd, Dorothy Floyd, Curtis Floyd, Janice Floyd, Michael Floyd, Sherry Floyd, and Debra Floyd; sisters-in-love, Marie Buckner, Brenda Buckner and brother-in-love, Keith Buckner.
