Help Us Honor Max's Memory and Service and Family Support

Hi Everyone,

It is with a heavy heart that we have to announce that Max has passed away… He leaves behind his parents and two sisters. Max passed early morning on August 1st while reporting to duty from a motor vehicle accident. For those who do not know, Max was a Navy Sailor stationed in San Diego, California.

Although we do not have an official date to hold the funeral for Max, we would like to request any financial assistance. Anything would be of help to commemorate him back at home with us, where his family is in Sheboygan Wisconsin, along with any funeral expenses that may not be covered, that’ll allow family and friends to send him off properly and say our last goodbyes. Our ideal plan would be a 2-day funeral service for all his friends and family to come together one last time for him, but this is not yet confirmed. As of now though, we are still waiting to confirm his final funeral dates. We will be sure to keep you all updated so that anyone who wishes to him one last time will have the chance to do so.

We are also seeking aid for the expenses to travel to Max’s apartment in San Diego. We would like to be able to gather his belongings and bring these pieces back home, as these will be all that we will have of him.

We’ve been receiving some more information regarding funeral expenses for service members, and we want to express our gratitude for that considering we are at a loss of what we can do for him. Any financial donations will be primarily for family support.
