Green family; I am truly sorry for your loss. Max was a wonderful mentor. It's cliche, but he was like a second Dad. Much love to you guys. My prayers are with you all.

Our son (Kirk Chessher) worked for Max and looked up to him. Kirk spoke of him so much we felt we knew him personally. At Kirk's death Max's words were a comfort. Please accept our sincere condolences for the loss of a good man.

Caca, please accept my deepest condolences in this sad time. I, too, know the depth of the loss of a husband of many years, and I can tell you that time does indeed ease the worst of the pain. Max is now in a better place. You must take comfort from your loved ones and your friends who are here to support you and help you through these sad days.
