Dear Max/Family, as neice/nephew of our Aunt Ruth Karp, we reside in CT and winter in FL, so unfortunately only met Arthur Max on a few family occasions. Each time in his presence we felt his warm personality and good sense of humor, and will always be grateful for him being a wonderful friend/companion to our Aunt. He was always a gentle/man in every sense of the word - may his memory be for a blessing, forever.
