My Uncle Max was the best uncle anyone could ask for. I remember when I was young he would always be ready to play catch with me and talk baseball especially the REDSOX. He always made me laugh with his corny jokes and faces he would make. I miss you Uncle Max

My Uncle Max was/is the very best in the definition of UNCLE. As a young child I always looked forward to see Max and listen to his jokes. Uncle Max took me to my very 1st Boston Redsox game and he loved baseball no matter what team but, Boston was his team. He raised an incredible family and loved them dearly. Rest in peace Max

Max,
I couldn't have asked for a better father-in-law. One of my most fond memories of you was the great conversation you and I had on my wedding day. I am so glad that our videographer captured that footage, and that I can go back and watch that with Ruth and the rest of the family, anytime! Our wedding day, and the World Series were truly two of your happiest moments! I'll miss you very much. I'll be sure to ask the waitresses to send the plate home with me, as well as taking care of me being hungry.
Love,
Russ

Feiner Family;
Mr. Feiner and the entire Feiner family have been in my thoughts since I first heard the news late last week. Mr. Feiner accompanied me to my first Red Sox game at Fenway and I'll never forget the hospitality and kindness he and Mrs. Feiner bestowed upon me as a guest in their home. I also remember the obvious pride he had for Bob and the grandchildren when I last saw him at Austin and Jacob’s Bris. All of our lives are better for having the privilege of knowing Mr. Feiner and I wish him and the entire family all of the best.

Ru, Zippy, Bob and the rest of the Feiner Family,
Having Ru as my first friend ever at college also came meeting Max and Zippy that day as well. I will never forget his overall positivity and proudness that his dtr was at Pierce. From then until now, a few broken hall lights in between, he will be sorely missed and remembered in the utmost respectful way. Thank you for giving me Ru as a friend for life. May you be at peace. Love, Sheridan
