MAXWELL RABKIN Obituary
Jason, 27, passed on May 7, 2016 in Hollywood, FL. Max was born June 19, 1988 to Ronald and Melissa Rabkin. Max was raised in Montville, NJ. While still in high school, he worked as a Page in the U.S. House of Representatives and later interned at The White House and for the Office of Congressman Rodney P. Frelinghuysen. He graduated in 2010 from George Washington University. While living in Chicago and New York, Max spent the last few years pursuing a career in Capital Introduction at Societe Generale as well as other financial institutions. Max had a larger-than-life, passionate personality that was contagious to all who had the fortune of knowing him. His smile, humor and passion for life brought so much joy to his family and friends. Max is survived by his loving parents, Ronald and Melissa; devoted sister, Liza; beloved grandparents, Jerome, Joyce, and Pat. A memorial service will be held at Riverside Memorial Chapel, 180 W. 76th Street in Manhattan on Thursday, May 12th at 2pm.

Our hearts are broken on the passing of your beloved Max. Max would come to visit Jordan when he would come down to Boca. He was so special and would light up the room when he walked in. He was charming, funny and engaging. We loved it when he visited. He was an amazing person and we will cherish the time we got to spend with Max and all the beautiful memories we have of him. Our sincere condolences.
