A celebration of his life. Max Matt, born December 25th 1910–died March 23, 2007

Max touched many lives in his long journey from the Ukraine to Romania to Montreal to Conneticut. Family and friends are urged to leave comments, memories, and stories in the comment section below.

In this podcast Max talks to the piano player about his army days at Camp Sheldon, Mississippi in February 1941 and his favorite tune, “Blue Moon”. After a brief cut of the tune, Max continues to talk about learning Yiddish at ninety-six and muses about answering an ad in the Yiddish Forward for a mohel in Uganda. This was record at a family gathering for Eli Debs’ 70th birthday in 2006.

Max, we’ll miss you.
