    No words can describe how sorry I am for your loss- Mary, Danielle and John.

    Max was very kind man with a big heart. And he always had a stories to tell! He was such a unique character!

    I will never forget how he was always there ready to make us the best homemade cappuccino after his long days in farm taking care of land and animals. And served us over a dinner with great bottle of red wine. And when it comes to cowboy boots, we had same taste!

    Unfortunately I cannot attend funeral but thinking of you all as you celebrate Max’s remarkable life! 🙂

    Thank you Max for being part of my life! And sharing stories about your love towards our Heavenly Father. I will never forget that!

    With Love,
    Hanka

    thank you for all the times you took me to tennis as a young boy, all the times you picked me up from the airport, and showed your love and care in so many various ways.
    I was so impressed by your ability to forgive people and to let things go with light-heartedness. This was a very beautiful quality that I very much respect.
    To this day I clearly recall the life-changing event you experienced in 1998 and whilst I didn’t understand it at the time I remember how your voice and was so noticeably different and I knew you had experienced something very profound for you.
    I trust that you are now with the source of that life-changing event and are experiencing peace and love in the presence of your maker.

    thank you for you, thank you for your love, and for all you bought into my life as your son

    With Love,
    John

    Dear Mary, Danielle and John, my deepest sympathy and sincere condolence to you for the loss of your dear husband and father.
    I will always remember Max as a gentle, light hearted and generous man who extended friendship to everyone he met.
    I have fond memories of the big family get togethers, especially at Mt. Macedon, where Max would make us laugh, tell stories and tease Nanna. All who knew him will remember him with a smile and miss him.
    He has returned to the father and everlasting joy.

    In loving memory of Uncle Max.

    I will always treasure the times our families spent together. Your passion and competitiveness for our tennis games. Your infectious laugh and funny stories. The fun times spend hay baling on the farm. I will never forget the amazing memories through my childhood and as a young adult.

    I’m grateful to share so many childhood stories with my own family, of time spent at Mt.Macedon with you, Aunty Mary, Danielle and John.

    May you rest in love and peace.

    Deepest sympathies to Aunty Mary, Danielle and John.
