Not sure what to say?

My name is Stevie from Scotland. I am a friend of Jillienne. I really want to pay my respects to Maxwell as Jillienne would always talk so fondly of her brother. Her face would light up and tone in voice would be so happier. He sounded like a great man. I want to wish my condolences to the family and friends of Maxwell and hope they will find the strength to live a life Maxwell would proud to see. Thank you. Best wishes. Stevie

Anyone who knew Max even for just a short while would tell you he was a truly unique and special person. Max was never a big fan of conventional wisdom and chose to write his own story-taking each step forward with triumph and pride. His larger-than-life personality, charm and class set Max apart from the crowd and he knew it. Max ALWAYS put the people around him first and was one of those friends who would always say "if you ever need anything…"-except with Max he would actually be there...

I am Maxwell's mother, Gabrielle.

These messages are the kindest thing you can do for me and my family.

When I read them, I am with Max again if only for a moment.

It helps me cope.

Max called me a techno-tard.

I don't have face book. So I can visit him here and share the parts of Max you knew.

Elena and I first met Max with Francis at Central Park Zoo. They immediately bonded as worldly, precocious young adults - fun, funny, adventuresome, giving and with good hearts. We saw him afterwards and kept abreast of his exploits, but I will always remember him walking on the path with the sunshine bouncing on him between through the breaks in the tree canopy. Blessings, Max, and prayers for your family.

Our thoughts and prays are with you. I hope you can feel our arms around you.

The first time a spoke to max I was amazed by his outstanding personality . He was one if a kind.Max was talented and had a huge imagination for designing jewlery. When my best friend told me she was getting engaged i was so excited!!!! I highly recomended max .He was the best!!!!! I also wanted him to make mine one day :( He was special to me and I can't imagine how you are all feeling . I am here for you jillien your like a little sister to me and i worry for you, you must be heartbroken....

You truly were the definition of a gentleman. You always helped me out when in times of need and truly were a good friend. The world did not only loose a noble person, but they lost someone with a good sense of ethics as well as a good sense of moral character. No matter what Max was willing to take the shirt of his back to help a fellow friend in times of need. My prayers go to you and your family Max.

Heartfelt condolences from your New England Unit Airstream friends.

Max was a wonderfully unique person. He definetly marched to the beat of his own drum. I respected this about Max. He was a leader and not a follower. He died young but during his short time on earth he lived it his way: learning, laughing and loving. Again, another characteristic I respected about Max. I am sure he is up in heaven gathering the troops for some outrages pranks, telling silly jokes, talking philosophy and looking down on us with smiles telling us all to live on and live...
