My sister, Jacki Fredricks and I had the honor to interview Max for our 150 Years of Blanchard last summer as we honored all residents over the age of 90! Max was a delight to listen to. I will always remember how he enjoyed sharing his life and his love for music and everything else in between. He also shared that he walked a mile and a half to school uphill, both ways, of course. It was an honor to know Max for as long as I can remember. I also enjoyed him and Marie sitting in the garage or on the driveway pad in their favorite chairs for many years. A honk or a wave was always met with a wave back from them. As the obituary says, he will be missed by all who knew him.
