Ronnah, so sorry to hear of your dads passing. I knew your family when we lived in waynetown. Prayers to all of you
To all Max’s family, I’m sorry for your great loss. I worked with Max, starting my apprenticeship the same day he did, and can say I never worked with a more honest and sincere man. Hard working and knowledgeable, he never minded taking time to teach and help me whenever I asked and believe me, he knew a lot more than I did. I’m proud to have worked both with and for Max.
