Stories

The Real Uncle Max

The Uncle Max for whom this site is named was able to plow through crowded elevators and subways of a city known for its predominance of people with dour ultra-conservative demeanor spreading joy and happiness.

What a joy to walk with him and observe the change overcoming people touched by his personality.

Inward he was strong. Outward he was a loveable saint – the epitome of kindness.
