Max Grazia

Max Grazia

Max Grazia, 71, of The Villages, FL, For those of you who are unaware, I am saddened to have to tell you that Max passed away Tuesday, March 6, 2018. He fought a long, hard and valiant battle against his failing body but his heart just gave out on him. He lived the last couple of years of his life primarily bedridden but did it with a great deal of grace and dignity and with his incredible sense of humor intact. We will miss him greatly.

Preparations were just finalized for his service and burial.

The visitation will be this Friday, March 9, 2018 from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. at Beyers Funeral Home on 134 N. Highway 441, Lady Lake, FL 32159. Visitation will be followed by a brief service at 11 a.m. and a reception following as our guests at the Hacienda Country Club at 1200 Morse Boulevard in The Villages from 11:45 to 1:15 p.m. (Soda, along with coffee and tea will be provided. A cash bar is also available.)

Max chose to be buried at the Florida National Cemetery in Bushnell, Florida. An additional short service will be provided at the cemetery at 2:30 p.m. A minibus will be available to transport friends and family to the cemetery, departing from Hacienda Country Club at 1:15 p.m. for arrival in Bushnell just prior to the service. Limited seating on the bus will be available for our guests. If you would be interested in traveling with us to the cemetery, please let me know in advance so I can assure you that a seat(s) will still be available. The bus will return riders to the Hacienda Country Club after the service. Others wishing to travel separately, of course, are welcome to join us in Bushnell.

Please keep Max in your thoughts and prayers. Roberta Grazia.
