In November of 2015, Max received a medal from the Royal City Literary Arts Society in New Westminster, BC, honouring him for his dedication to RCLAS and inspirational work in children’s writing. Max was in the hospital but his wife Estelle received the award in his place and it now sits on a table facing his bed where he gains so much pleasure in looking at the photograph and medal.
