In 2003, Max applied to the United States Marshal Service and would become a vital member of the Gulf Coast Violent Offenders & Fugitive Task Force. He loved the opportunities he was given by the Marshal’s Service, and held his badge with much pride, humility, strength, and valor. Max was known to be a central point of contact and was capable of treating each and every person with respect and dignity. In 2007, he welcomed his second daughter Sarah Piñon, and would become the best father, mentor, and idol to both of his daughters.
