ELEMENTARY
LEAGUE CHAMPIONS
Mifflin Ice Hockey
Darren's
son Damon played on Mifflin's Ice Hockey team in 2003/2004.
Proving that it's a small world, Dean Stremba and Eric Groscup were
also on the same team. Dean's Dad, Steve, is my team partner
at work, and Eric's Dad, Tom, used to be one of the supervisors of
the department that I'm in before he left to form his own
engineering firm. Eric is in the top row of kids all the way
to the left, Dean is in the top row of kids 3rd from the left, Damon
is on the far right, Steve is top left, and Tom is the guy without a
hat on the right. The Mifflin Hockey team has their own
website.

Chris Mal Notes: |
Darren was a driver in my wedding.
Due to the lack of Jewish people and the large population of Indians in
South Dakota, when Darren visited there he was affectionately known as
"Jew-ronimo."
I'm guessing that when most people read Darren's favorite memory from
high school, you were thinking to yourselves, "Yeah, actually, now
that I think about it, that's my favorite memory too!" You
bunch of perverts.
Darren and I played softball together every Sunday from 1993 thru 2000.
Randy and Colleen Boyer are Darren's son, Damon's, God-parents.
Darren was one half of the B's Duet, and co-writer of the hit single
"I Can't Believe It." If I remember right, the flip side of
the single was "La Bondero de Astados Anitos Me Te Gusta Entonces
Leer Leer Leer" (which translated means "The American Flag, I
like to Eat, Read Read Read." It's deep, you wouldn't
understand.)
The first time I ever met Darren's wife, Debbie, was to watch the Flyers
second to last play-off game in 1986. As a puck squeeked through
Hextall's legs she yelled, "Woooah! There's a crotch burner!"
We've loved her ever since.
I am also quite fond of Debbie's corn salsa. It is to die for! I'm
telling you, once you eat her corn salsa, you'll never crave regular
salsa again. Her corn salsa is God's greatest gift to this world.
Question - just remembered something - neither Darren nor I were in the
Nation Honor Society. Why not, damn it? 15 years later, I
demand an answer. We were both in the Top 10 in the class, what
gives?
Darren�s son, Damon, was the ring bearer in Erin Miller�s (Class of
�91?) wedding in 1999.
The picture shown to the right is of Deb
and Darren Max, Collen and Randy Boyer, Kirsten and Carter Cheskey (well,
the top of Carter's head), and me and Bev - from our trip to Viva Good
Life Bistro and Lounge in Reading near the VF outlets, 1/10/04. If
you haven't been there yet, GO! Awesome food.
In the 1983 Senior Class Will (found in the
June 1983 issue of Penn Post), Jordan
Max left his right to be a cynic to Darren Max.
Not only does Darren share a birthday with
his wife, but he also has the same birthday as former classmates Dave
Knorr, and the late Kenny Hoverter. |
