Passing of Max Maven
It is with sadness that we share the news of the passing of Max Maven on November 1, 2023. In the words of long time G4Ger Mark Mitton: “Max will be missed. He was a most clever and generous friend to so many.” We are currently setting up a G4G tribute page, any contributions in form of pictures, anecdotes and stories are very welcome and can be sent to support@g4gfoundation.org.
