RC Jones worked with Max for many years and they both love the game of football. RC played for Murray High and Max went to Train School and played basketball. They could talk for hours about the games. RC and I are both so sorry to read this. RC and I were on vacation when our first grand son was born and and RC had agreed to hook Paul Mansfiled water line to the meter and so that day we were out on 94 West and I was the gofer and Peggy Farmer couldn't find us or me and our next door neighbor call the water and sewer office and told them what was going on and Max can out and found us and took me to my home to get shower and go to Mayfield to wait for our daughter to have Joshua who's birthday is the 16th of this Month. I have always appreciated Max for doing this I don't think anyone else would have but him. It is times like this when you know and miss your friends. RIP Max..love always from RC and Marie Jones
