Maxine "Max" Louise Randall Obituary

Maxine (Max) Louise Randall, 92, of Hillsdale, passed away, Thursday, June 9, 2022. She was born on September 16, 1929 in Addison, MI, to William Oliver (Sr) and Lilly Lulu (Amy) Kline. On October 6, 1973, Maxine married Robert (Bob) Randall and he preceded her in death in 2010. Maxine is survived by one sister, Donna Stanlake of North Adams, and many nieces and nephews, including Mark Kline of Jonesville. She was able to stay in her home thanks to the loving care and friendship of Holly Bastien and Sharon Bierl. In addition to her husband, Max was preceded in death by her parents, two brothers, George and William, and six sisters, Katherine, Celia, Nina, Viola, Freida, and Cora. Her first love was baseball. She was a pitcher from 1948 through 1954 with The Fort Wayne Daisies, a team in the All American Girls Professional Baseball League. She was considered one of the top 5 pitchers in the league. After the league ended, Max played on the Allington All-Stars, also known as All-Americans, and toured the US from 1955 through 1957 playing against male teams. Max worked at Jonesville Products for many years, where she met Bob, the love of her life. She became a full-time homemaker after marrying him and lived at their farm near Hillsdale for the rest of her life. Max was an “unforgettable” character, with a big smile and a great laugh. As one relative put it, “She was salt, grit and a baseball mitt”. As per her wishes, the family is holding a private service. She will be buried with her husband at Northlawn Cemetery in North Adams. Memorial contributions are suggested to The Salvation Army or a charity of the donor’s choice. Please visit www.hamptonfuneralhomes.com to sign the guestbook and/or send a condolence to the family.
