Max grew up in Winfield, Ala., where he was known as a great athlete and lettered in three sports. In first grade, he met Martha Weeks, a little blonde-haired girl, who has been his lifetime sweetheart, friend, help-mate, and wife for 61 years. In 1964, Max and Martha moved with their three children to Indiana. When Max crossed over into Indiana, he pulled over, stopped the car, and said, \"\"From this point forward, as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.\"\" Max and Martha spent their lives singing and preaching throughout the Midwest and West Alabama areas. Max was a faithful and obedient servant of God. He made a Godly impact in countless lives. Max wanted you to know Jesus and experience an abundant life. \"\"..I have come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.\"\" John 10:10.
