Max Dorfmeister Obituary

Max Dorfmeister

He loved playing golf with his wife, spending time with his dogs, especially Jake, having Easter egg hunts for the grandkids, watching his children and grandchildren play sports and vacationing by the ocean with family. The children and grandchildren remember him passing out gold coins or silver dollars for good grades.
