June 14, 2023 at 5:48 pmTo the Family of Max, Know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. He was very much, ” One of a Kind “. I knew him from working with my brother painting and hanging wallpaper. And later when I working at the Paint store (AP & D ) He was one of the crew at Hilton Head in early 70’s as well. He had a sense of humor that never stopped. Always, always, had you laughing hard, every time you would see him.. Everyone liked Max. So sorry to hear of his passing. Joey Tollison – Columbia, sc
