    Max was such a good man, I miss seeing him with my Dad, Ed Elton, they were so funny together. They worked and traveled together. So now he is in Heaven with family and friends. Sympathy goes out to all the family.

    My sympathy to all of the Borgmeyer family as you say goodbye (for now) to your beloved Max. "For I know that my Redeemer lives, and at the last he will stand upon the earth. And after my skin has been thus destroyed,
    yet in my flesh I shall see God, whom I shall see for myself, and my eyes shall behold, and not another." Job 19:25-27
