MAXINE BOHABOY 1924 – 2023 Maxine (Pop) Bohaboy age 98 of Plattsmouth, NE formerly of Lincoln, NE peacefully passed away on Wednesday, February 1, 2023 at The Nebraska Masonic Home in Plattsmouth. Maxine was born at home in Prague, NE on April 23, 1924, to Anton William Bohaboy and Mollie Helen (Pop) Bohaboy. She was their beloved only living child. Her father was the local country veterinarian and she sometimes went with him on his rounds, first in a horse and buggy and then in their Model A Ford. Maxine would often answer the telephone when a call came in for her dad, speaking Czech when necessary. She only learned English when she went to Kindergarten. She kept some lovely little hints of the old language in her speech all the rest of her life. After graduating from high school in Prague, Maxine received her teaching certificate at Midland College and taught country school at Duck Creek, District 22 for two years. She then attended the University of Nebraska at Lincoln and received a degree in Home Economics. After that, she completed an internship at the Veterans Administration Hospital in Houston, TX. She returned to Lincoln to work, becoming the "therapeutic dietician" at Lincoln General Hospital where she worked 31 years until she retired. Years later she served samples as a "demo" at Sam's Club for 10 years and as a greeter at Walmart for 5 years. Maxine was a people person. She made friends easily, loving to hear and tell interesting stories about her many acquaintances. Maxine loved food, hot coffee, and a very occasional beer. She loved her home, beautifully decorated in the Early American Style. She loved her flower garden, her yard and especially her trees. She loved Lincoln and reading about it in the newspaper every day, until her health necessitated a move to The Nebraska Masonic Home in Plattsmouth. Throughout her life, Maxine tried to keep a positive attitude. She was already thinking about her 99th birthday party with friends! She is survived by many dear friends and Maxine was preceded in death by her parents: Anton and Mollie Bohaboy.
