Max Gordon
Max, our Chief Inspiration Officer, was laid to rest on December 4, 2021. He had been a part of our family since he was seven weeks old.
Max loved everyone he met and shared hugs and kisses without hesitation. His favorite pastime was playing fetch. He never met a ball he didn't like. His Grandma spoiled him with Frosted Mini-Wheats for breakfast and carrots for an afternoon snack.
Max lived a long and wonderful life. We were told that big dogs don't live as long as smaller breeds, but Max proved them wrong. He spent almost 15 years living his best life. In 2020, he had a major surgery to remove a baseball-sized soft tissue sarcoma from his chest. Later, he was diagnosed with Degenerative Myelopathy. Ultimately, his hind legs started giving out and the vet said his quality of life would continue to diminish.
We continue to be inspired by Max because no matter what he went through, he lived life to the fullest and no matter who you were, he loved you unconditionally. He reminds us of how Jesus loves us despite all of our flaws and imperfections. Although Max is no longer with us physically, he lives forever in our hearts.
