Anita Maxine Hancock

A smile is missing from among us, but don’t the heavens seem brighter? We lost our precious mother, Nanny and friend this week and our lives will never be the same. We are heartbroken now for our loss, but we know she had a glorious reunion in heaven, and we know that we will see her again one day, and for that, we are most grateful. Anita Maxine Hancock was born on March 23, 1938, to Walter and Estelle Cheatham in Chillicothe, Texas. She opened her eyes in heaven on November 11, 2020. Anita grew up and went to school at Union. She married Donald Hancock on December 22, 1955. They had many happy years together, as she worked side by side with him on the farm. Donald was called home in 2003. After Donald’s death, Anita became quite the businesswoman and always knew just how things should be done. Anita was very active in different organizations, many of those being related to agriculture. She was also very active in WMU and other activities at the Baptist Church in Wellman. Later, she joined First Christian Church in Brownfield, and became an active member, serving her Savior there. She was also involved in the Terry County Historical Commission and was very interested in preserving the rich history of Terry County. Anita was such a fun and loving lady. She was so outgoing
