I have fond memories of Judge Daniels. He knew what Defendants deserved a break and what ones didn't! He was fair and consistent and was always willing to listen. Great respect!

Dear Jan and family,
As Judge "Max the Axe's" court reporter for all of his 17 years on the bench, I can say that I probably saw many sides of his personality and he taught me a lot. I know that he respected what I did and always had my back. Rest in peace, Judge.

An example of Max's dry humor. Max & I were sitting on either side of Jim Kobza at a Muskegon Bar Association meeting. Jim dropped a kernel of corn on napkin on his lap. Max said, quick as a wink, "Look, corn on the Kobza."

My condolences to Mrs. Daniels and Bob, Mark and Craig. I have many fond memories of Michigan football games and weekends at Webers Inn. Our family´s staying in Chicago and us boys having our room where we watched spooky movies on tv. Many hockey games on the ice rink and playing pickle in the summer. I even remember Mr. Daniels breaking his ankle while riding my brothers bike possibly while trying to do a wheelie.It was always interesting to talk to him after trials had concluded to gain insight into why he ruled certain ways.

When Harry Knudsen was Muskegon County Prosecutor, Max was Chief Assistant, and I was an Assistant. Max was upset when someone saw his name of his U of M law degree as Robert Max Daniels and called him Bob. Thereafter I called him Bob and Max called me Ralph, my middle name, but only outside the hearing of anyone else. We had great fun with this.
Max's dry humor was a delight. He used to say that he was a specialist handling only treason cases.

Sorry to hear Max passed. I worked for Balgooyen, Daniels & Balgooyen for many years, starting in 1956 for the Balgooyen firm in the Heights. Prayers to the family at this difficult time.
