Maxime lived a fulfilling life, he was a very sociable person and loved to entertain. Growing up, we always had huge dinner parties with friends and relatives for every occasion like birthdays, graduations, engagements, weddings and anniversaries. He made friends easily wherever he went. He was also very active in the church community and was a deacon at the Cathedral St. Louis in Mauritius. He was also very instrumental in acquiring a plot of land to establish a senior recreational centre (Fook Look Soo) in Mauritius.
A special thank you to Peter Fan as a friend and his spiritual support, Dr Albert Yeung Lai Wah as a friend and his medical support and Laura Gagnon, his support worker who looked after him so well in his later days.
