When I was young, Max served and help lead our Boy Scout troop. I remain grateful for the lessons that he imparted on camping trips and for the inspiration of his selfless example. RIP.

Your dear husband was a very important member of North Central's foreign language department. I am most grateful for all his help as I wrestled with all the technology needed to enhance my students' exposure to French. He prepared huge bags of delicious popcorn for the foreign language teachers, a most thoughtful and appreciated gesture! How fortunate was I to have worked with Max. Please accept my heartfelt condolences , Donna.
