Thank you for sharing this link. Sad and glad that they're going through this together.
I had a similar interaction some time ago. Was visiting my in-laws on Mercer. Doing island laps on my friends borrowed Steelman. Came across Tarrell and then rolled up on Max. I had only seen his work and didn't know the man by sight. As I passed, He commented on the Steelman and I commented on his ride, mentioning there was a women a few hundred yards back on another cool rig. He said, "oh thanks, She's my fiancé. I built both of them". It was then I realized it was Max himself. I slowed and we talked bikes/life for quite a while. Such a nice couple.

Be at peace.
