My Dear Max.. I will miss you.. we had some great fun and and lots of gabbing.. Am so glad that we re-connected after all those years.. You have always been special to me... hugs and prayers for my friend

I never knew Max personally, but I learned of him through my father, Paul Hale DeShong, who died April 8, 2003. My father was Ruby Gillette's grandson (son of Earl DeShong) and was born about a month before Max. Although they were in different branches of the service, they both served in Korea. My wife and I send our condolences, as we imagine the two of them together as boys years ago in West Michigan.

Max will be greatly missed. His kind,gentle and unassuming spirit will live on in the hearts of all who knew him. Thanks Max, I will always remember you.

I have many very good memories of Max. He was a very good guy and always treated people well. He was a pleasure to know.
