He will also be remembered for his impeccable style and his gifted ability for decorating and creating beautiful flower arrangements. Charismatic and truly the life of the party, Maxim loved hosting gatherings in his home filled with laughter, dancing, and singing.
Maxim's love, kindness, and vibrant spirit will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.
Services will be held at 1:00pm, Saturday, January 17, 2026, in the chapel of Roller-Chenal Funeral Home, with visitation with the family at 12:00 noon.

Upon moving to Little Rock, Max always made me feel like family. Always very cheerful and caring he made sure I had necessary tools needed to thrive in work. And even acknowledged and celebrated my birthday as if he'd known me for years. Truly a good person gone to soon.

I used to cut Max’s hair and always loved listening to his stories. He was small but feisty, with a spirit that filled the room. I’ll miss getting him ready to go out with his amazing husband, Jeremy.

Max will forever be missed and will always remain in my heart. My Dearest nephew knew how much I loved him and how much we enjoyed spending time together. He was witty, charismatic and intelligent. Our family has suffered a huge loss.
He will be greatly missed by so many. Rest in peace Maxito.
Heaven has gained an angel.
