I am so glad that Max was a friend of mine. I loved listening to his stories especially about trouting. We trouted together many times over the years.
He a\was always so excited to show me his catches evey 24th May and Labour Day at Jacks Pond.
Time spent with max was always memorable and I knowhe loved you and his family. His phrase GOD BLESS YOU will always be music in my ears.
Max would always say to me Ralph how many trout do you have and I always said 11. He would say you bugger you got more than that.
One day while fishing at Square Pond I caught a dozen trout ranging from half a pound to 2 pounds I placed them on a rock took a piucture then I thought take 1 away and get a pictureb of 11 to show Max.
I went to Stagg Signs in Grand Falls and had them enlarge the picturte and had them install it on the front of my RV.
I
On Labour Day weekend we went to Jacks Pond parked the RV and went to Max and Hazel’s site and said Max you got to come to my camper to see my 11 trout when he looked at the picture on the RV he said you bugger. What laughs we had.
Cherish your memories and God Bless . Rest in Peace Max and God Bless the family during this difficult time.
Sending our deepest sympathies to you and your family .

Dear Hazel, I am so sorry to hear of Max’s passing.. I have wonderful memories of him over the years since our graduation some 50 + years.

Thinking of you and keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Jeanette Walsh
Hazel, Mark, Trevor and family,
Gary and I send our heartfelt condolences and we are so sorry we cannot attend the funeral services for Max.
May the memories and all the stories you hear about Max send you all comfort during this sad time. Max’s personality was larger than life itself.
A wonderful neighbour and a fabulous friend. I loved listening to his stories and his love of music.
Hazel and all the Baldwin family. There are no words that can truly show the sorrow I felt in hearing the news of Max’s passing. All the wonderful memories of growing up, school days and all along the way. You could never meet or think of Max without a big smile, a laugh and a hug. A couple of times I recall was when he came to Gander on business with Social Services with their office on the same floor as I worked known then as U I. Knowing I worked there Max took time to stop by and in approaching the reception desk asked to see if I could loan him a bucket of coal. It was the joke of the office and took a lot of explaining to staff that day creating quite a few smiles and head shaking. Another visit prompted him to ask to see if I could sell him a few (U I ) stamps. There are so many more stories I do recall from time to time that his whit, smile and sharing of laughter with us will never be forgotten. Rest In Peace Max. Your memory will keep us smiling for a long time to come. May God’s blessing be with you all at this time. 🙏. Mabel and Ralph

Hazel & Family,
So sorry to hear of Max’s passing. As a young girl growing up in Pouch Cove, I would watch as Max marched past our house as a Proud Member of the S.U.F. band. In later years, when we would meet, he always had that foolish grin and I knew there was a story behind it. He would love to chat about days gone by, a drop of “Squatam” at Mom’s and of course, always a joke. He always had that smile, that laugh and shared lots of memories.
May your memories of Max now bring a smile to your face and sustain you in the days to come. May he rest in peace with his God, whom he served so well.
Thinking of you and remembering you in our Prayers.

Kevin and Kay Smith
Hazel and family, please accept my heartfelt condolences on Max’s passing. I first met you both during the time I taught Mark at Macdonald Drive. There was an instant connection with you during interview time. It seems so long ago. I will always remember Max’s infectious smile and good nature. Blessings at this time.
Hazel & family, so sad to hear about Max’s passing. I have such wonderful memories of Max over the years but the best one is our Christmas parties on 1 N/S. Every Christmas we talk about favourite memories and one that comes to mind in our conversation is Jumping Santa. This is what Chris named Max and he would be anxiously be waiting for him to appear. Even after all these years he remembers Max.! We had so much fun at these Christmas parties and many other events. Sending our deepest sympathy and love to you all.
To all of Max’s family & friends: I was so sad to hear that Max had passed. I have wonderful memories, as do everyone that knew him. My first memory was of him being my Sunday School teacher in Pouch Cove. My latest is of him being so good to mom, Eileen Baldwin, at Pleasantview Towers. They would walk arm in arm up and down the corridor singing hymns and sometimes a jig; everyone there though he was mom’s brother – that is what she told them. Every time he went to see his brother he would go see mom and she so looked forward to his visits but then Covid stopped that and she couldn’t understand where he was. Hopefully they are singing again with the angels. It is all the laughs, stories and smiles that will push your pain aside and bring back your smiles. Our thoughts, prayers and love go out to you all at this difficult time.
Condolence to the family. Extremely saddened by the news. Max was a kind soul and will always have a place in my heart.
Hazel, Trevor and family
Please accept my sincere condolences on the passing of a wonderful soldier who always answered the call to Fight the Good Fight.. forever positive and humorous, he enhanced any group that he was a part of. For me he was a great friend and I was proud to say that I served in the same C.L.B. that was so well supported by his family. He maintained a strong faith and may he rest in peace and rise in glory..

Sorry for your loss
I always enjoyed my dealings with Max , his pleasant & outgoing personality
Kevin Dunphy
Hazel and family,
I knew Max from his early years and, in time, we became family friends. I guess our real friendship was set when we both played trumpet in the S.U.F. band in Pouch Cove; and that was a long time ago. There are many wonderful stories that could be told about our experiences together. One to be cherished dearly was our involvement with Ed and Gerald in the planning of the Old School Reunion; and, of course, our regular get-togethers at some restaurant for a scoff and some memories to share. Shirley and I were devastated to learn of his serious illness and eventual passing. We pray that the God he loved will pour His blessings upon you to give you strength and courage as you face those difficult times. May you take condolence from knowing that he is now reunited with those he loved dearly.
Most sincerely: Eugene and Shirley
Dear Hazel and family , my deepest sympathy to all on the passing of Max . I have fond memories of Max as a school friend and going over to Jeps at recess time
I was delighted to see Max again at our school reunion . Max and so many other people worked so hard to make that wonderful event happen .
God love you Max , fly high with the angels .
Trevor, We are very sorry for your Family’s loss. If I may offer a memory which attests your Dad’s amazing sense of humour. When we were kids, each time I went to your house, Max always jumped out of his seat and pretended there was an intruder in his home when I walked in – trying to get a rise out of whichever relative or friend was sitting with him. In the middle of it all, he would turn to me and give me The Wink – to signal that he did indeed know me and now we were both now playing the joke on everyone in the room. It felt inclusive, comforting and it was hilarious to be in his presence.
To all The Baldwins who laughed with and at Max, we extend our deepest condolences.
Peter Roil & Aneesa Ullah
Hazel and family,
Our sincere condolences on the passing of Max. Whenever we met him, there was always a witty remark and a hearty laugh .He will be sorely missed. Wishing you peace to bring you comfort, courage to face the days ahead and loving memories that you can hold forever in your hearts.

Deepest sympathy to the Baldwin family. I worked in Finance years ago with Max, who was always, funny, helpful and told many great stories. RIP eternally with the angels. Condolences to all and God Bless.
In heartfelt sympathy and prayer to Hazel and family. In your time of loss and sorrow. I worked in Social Services years ago and Max worked in the department. His infectious smile and BIG sense of humor brightened many employees days. Many times I was typing away and he would sneak up behind me and start massaging my shoulders. I quickly forgot the fright he gave me. He was a pleasure to be around. Fast forward to more recent years and our paths crossed a few times.. He was still the same Max as I remembered him. I know he had his share of poor health and the loss of Donna took a lot out of him. Take comfort in your cherished memories and knowing he is reunited with his beloved Donna and his loved ones who predeceased him. You have another guardian angel watching over you. He earned his wings and a peaceful rest. God bless!
So sad! I’ve known Max since my first days at the Confederation Bldg way back in 1978. The past few years Kev and I would see him at A n W having breakfast on Sunday! My condolences to his family❤

Dear Hazel. Deepest sympathy on the death of Max. I met Max many years ago through our association with the CLB. He was a band member and I, for a time was a Chaplain in Con Bay North. He was one of the dearest people I have ever met. His pleasant personality, big smiles and hugs were always present whenever we met. I know you and Max were devasted at Donna’s untimely death. I was so impressed with your deep faith at that time , both of you, and I’m certain that faith will sustain you now . One day your lovely family will be reunited again in the neater presence of our loving Lord. Charlie joins me in sending our deepest sympathy. Yours in Christian love, Canon Shirley.

Trevor, Lori, Paige and Liam: Sincerest condolences to you and your entire family on the passing of your Father and Grandfather. Keeping you in our thoughts and prayers during this time.
“God love you.” If I heard it once, I heard it a thousand times, whether it be on the telephone or in person. If there is any word that comes to mind when I think about Max is it those three words: “God love you.”
Thanks be to God for the memories that I have of this gentle soul. Whether it be his reasoning for living in Conception Bay South, all because of the woman who lived across the road from his childhood home on Kirby’s Lane, Pouch Cove (“Aunt Emma Newell”/my great-grandmother) or: the many phone calls over the years, especially in the time that I have been ordained. The thing that I will not forget the joy in his voice when I asked him to present me to the Bishop on the night of my Ordination to the Priesthood.
One loss for his parish family of St. Mark’s will be the lack of the famous jars of “Max’s Pickles,” made every year for the fall fair. Yet, with that said, the trout in Come By Chance River got only less hook to worry about.
Hazel and Family, the only thing that I can say is: “God love you.” To Max the only thing that can be said is “God love you.” God has indeed loved you and he has loved you enough to call you from this life to the fulfillment of the faith, hope and love of your baptismal endowment. May you rest in peace and rise in glory.
So sorry to hear of Max’s passing. I’ll always remember him at the Christmas eves we have had here in Bay Roberts and how he sweetly gifted us with “Max’s Pickles” at Christmas. Condolences to the family from The Barker’s
Max was a great man. Always kind and good natured. He was also one of my ‘secondary fathers’ who filled in the role after my own passed away. He will be sorely missed. Condolences to the Baldwin family – my thoughts are with you..
So very sorry to hear of Max’s passing, he was certainly one of the good guys. Please accept Renee’s and my sincerest condolences I knew him for so many years dating back to my childhood for his unending work to promote recreation in Wedgewood Park. Who knew we would end up making and enjoying music together. He too was so intertwined with Renee’s family, best buds with her dad, so much so they on occasion would sneak into the old General nurses residence to visit two young beautiful student nurses! Somewhere that dam Golden Star is ringing out! Rest Max, your earthly work is done.
