Max or as he’d say Maximus Decimus Meridius Funeral

With all the very kind messages & calls we have received from family & friends since the news broke that my big brother has sadly passed away has come a lot of messages offering financial support.

Max was so young, only 38 next month with so much life to still live. Although the last few years had been his biggest struggle yet he was everyday trying to get better & each time I saw him I saw such an improvement. He didn’t hide away from his battles, every person I have spoken to in the last few days knew what had been going on. He was openly trying to get through this and I just know he wanted to be here with us all. It is the saddest thing that life has been taken away from him far too soon & that we now all have to meet again under such sad circumstances but now we just have to ensure we celebrate the 37 years and 11 months he did have on earth side.

Max loved to party, he loved to dance, he LOVED music, I remember the music being so loud in our house growing up the neighbours would often knock to complain. So lets make sure the last thing we all do for him is celebrate his life the way he would have wanted.

Any money raised we will put towards ensuring his send off is the biggest celebration of his life. Money left over will be given to my mum when she needs to pay for Max’s dog Rufus’s vet fees and towards his food.

I remember when me and Max went and got Rufus, we walked him through Kentish Town in a towel taking turns who held him, and hid him from our mum for 3 days before she found we had got a puppy. I got bored quite quickly of having to go for constant walks or being up all night as he went through the puppy stage, but Max didn’t. Max loved Rufus, he was his dogchild and they spent so so much time together.

We have been trying our best to make funeral arrangements but the Autopsy will be carried out this Wednesday 22/05 so once we have more information and the go ahead to confirm a date i will make sure everybody knows.

Thank you X
