Yvonne,very sorry to hear of Max's passing.Our thoughts and prayers are with you & for Max.He was always a joy to be around, and I always looked forward to seeing you or Max come through the door while my time @ Maplewood.I remember the Saturday him & I spent together going to Jeffersonville to get a load of seed,it was so very windy we had to drive slow,so as not to topple the trailer we were pulling.It was all good,that way Max was able to tell me more stories & jokes !! How did he remember them all. May God Bless you and your family and watch over you during this difficult time. Curt,Laura,Colleen,Kyle Maurer
