Max was a people person. Friends and family will tell you that he lived life to the fullest. Max was a son, a father, a husband, an uncle, a nephew, a cousin, a family member, and a friend. He was a member of Norman Masonic Lodge #38 for a multitude of years and served as Past Master.
Mr. Harrison enjoyed spending quality time with his family. He liked spending time near the water in Eufaula, Oklahoma with family, friends, and friends he considered family. Max was happy. Max was always smiling. He was a joyous spirit who loved to make Kaye belly laugh at least one time a day. He was the kind of man you want to sit under the tree with and peel apples together.
