I didn't know max very well but when I was 14 I remember going to 6 flags and seeing him perform. He was an outstanding performer and very dedicated to what he did. Max was an extremely talented guy. My blessings go out to his family and friends, he will be missed dearly.

Max was a blessing to all who met him! Talented, handsome, funny, loving, polite, and this is coming from Belle's "Nanny"! You must work hard to impress a young lady's grandmother-Max did it! My heart breaks for you, Nancy & Scot, Jake & Mimi. Just be warmed by all the pleasure Max provided in his almost 20 years!! Much love, Sheila & Tom Byron (Belle's Nanny & Grampy Tom)
